Which headstuds and springs?

Getting ready to finish preparing the truck before I do the twins. I'll be running everything in my sig plus either an S475 or S480 on top. I need to know if I need hardcore headstuds or if the $500 ARP ones are enough. Also what kind of springs do I need. And if there is anything else I'm forgetting to do before I get the twins please let me know. I really don't want to deal with a blown head gasket or anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
