Headgasket and studs, anything else?
 
Well I picked up a 94 2500 with a newer tans for 800 bucks because the head gasket was leaking coolant out below the t-stat housing and was gonna stud it while i have it apartand have the rockers machined to fit the "short" arp studs and was wondering if theres anything else I should do while I'm in there. I was thinking 60 lb. Valve springs and machine the head for fire rings and install It all once. Any advise would be great, thank you.
