I have to do head gaskets on my truck and i am upgrading the gaskets and to arp studs but i am wondering if there is anything i should do to it while the heads are off? i still have a stock turbo, transmission n injectors so im not looking for anything crazy just simple extras.

What engine? I'd polish the turbo, LML drivers manifold, and 2" uppipes while in there. If its going to be a mild street truck I'd save money and buy new headbolts instead of studs. $.02

Eventually I want to do a turbo and transmission and little things I would like a daily driver around 500hp. I have exhaust,intake, downpipe, airdog 2, intake horn, efi live with small tunes, egr delete w pcv reroute. All the basics so far.

With your future plans I would stick with studs at this point. Let us know if we can help you with a HG kit.
