I'm guessing these are aluminum. Use a Fel-Pro 1010 $37.95 ea from jegs or summit

I depends on the rest of your setup. Knowing your piston to deck clearance will help you get the correct quench. Knowing what pistons you are using will help you pick a head gasket that is the correct thickness for your compression ratio.
