Do you have plans for more modifications? If so studs and why not ring it while its off? Make sure not to order the gasket until you know what was taken off the head. If you use studs you'll have two option to fit the valve covers over the studs a: mill the rocker stands or b : grind the valve covers. A is the best option.

Pretty straight foward job.
