The best gasket availabe is the stock gasket, believe it or not. And stage 8's are a must if you don't want to risk warping the flange when the bolts loosen up.

Mount them upside down so they come straight up through the hood. Just kidding. Congrats on the win. Let us know how the install goes and what difference you notice.

Where would I pick up a set of bolts? It comes with the aftermarket ones from JBA. Are these good enough?

I would get them man, if you cheap out and the bolts you use loosen up you could run into some problems. Not good.
