Basic Head Swap, Need Some Info Options

[drnovascotia]

Alrighty, so I've searched and found nothing. I am doing a basic head swap, replacing the 5sfe on my celica with a rebuilt 5sfe because the valve seals are toast. I have the head, and will check the seals and valve lash. I have the BGB for the car.
All I basically need to know from the experts (I've only ever done a swap on a Honda), is what parts I need (do I need new tensioners, etc), I'd imagine I'll do the water pump and timing belt, so what all do I need, and where's a good place online to get it.

So far
Head Gasket - Want a decent one
intake & Exhaust manifold gaskets.
Timing belt - any better than the others ?
water pump
t-stat (low temp because I don't drive it in the winter)

So, some help as to what else and what specific parts, as well as where you buy your toyota stuff online would help!

THANKS!

^ what he said.

Any toyota 5sfe HG is now metal. While your in there might as well get arp head studs also. Good luck with the swap, should take 6-7 hours-ish depending on the condition on some bolts. Def fallow the BGB on every step.
