Just get the stock Cometic or OEM headgasket. Not 100% but i believe the D16y8 headgasket is the same and its cheaper
ARP"s are a great investment on any engine.

I have to agree. If your car is stock and you're only planning on NA (Idk why) your best bet would be OEM headgasket w/ ARP headstuds. Stock headstuds cannot be re-used. You dont need any other hg for this type of build.

about the arp head studs/bolts does it comes like the factory bolts instead of just the long screws and bolts

arp's are studs not bolts, they screw into your block(basically just a threaded stick), then you put nuts on the studs(is there any way to put that that doesn't sound like a sexual innuendo?)
