just hand tools and some new gaskets and i'd get a set of new bolts since they are cheap. Longtubes require the engine to be lifted slightly(this is what i'm told, i'll verify in a couple weeks) but shorties don't.

yes get some locking bolts for the headers. no need to replace gasket month down road because bolt closest to firewall on driver side keeps backing off letting the gasket blow out

Most of the time you just need tools and a cherry picker. I did have one set of headers I had to weld (Kooks).
