I like using Felpro header gaskets. I would also suggest some Stage 8 header bolts if you do not have them.

I'd buy a pair of copper or aluminum gaskets. They're reuseable, and won't blow out. I've heard lots of good things about them. I would also go with the locking bolts. Everyone I know with headers always whines about the bolts coming loose.
