nup you wont need a new head gasket however you may need a new rocker cover gasket, depending on how shot your old one is. You will need an 1/8 punch and approx a 3/4 socket so that you can knock out the HLA's and put the shims under each one. Ive put the shims in the post tube with your cam. Get yourself a helper to hold up the cam gear when you change the cams over so that you dont need to reset your timing chain adjuster. If you have any drama's just give me a call
