I prefer Earl's header gaskets. Haven't had one fail on me yet. As far as bolts go, I tried the Stage 8 locking bolts and they didn't really work well because you have to make sure things line up perfectly for the little locks to fit on the bolt and I wound up having to modify a bunch to get them to fit at all.

I'm in the middle of a head gasket repair so I decided to try some Breslin Performance Split-Lock Header Bolts. They look promising.
