Yes, absolutely put new ARP head bolts in it.

Is there anything else recommended that I change whilst the heads are off? I know i have to get all new gaskets for everything, just wasn't sure if i should replace or check anything else? The motor has a little over 82k on it. I was also wondering if it is absolutely necessary to remove the pushrods before remove the heads? I have a couple mustang books, and only one of them refers to removing the pushrods prior to removing the heads? Thanks alot everyone
