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!

alright, I'll make sure it's a metal one.

I was hoping to do it in 5, but 8 ir more realistic. The swap on my crx took weeks, but thats only because I haden't done one before.

I don't like that the cams need to be re-installed, but I'll make sure the shims and such are all good. BGB should explain it well.

That sounds like everything, any other hints for me?
