Right.....lets get a list up for this one.

Trechii (the supplier in the link) is very good for head bolts, head gaskets and stem seals (if you are also replacing these)

Cam shaft seals can be re-used

Cam cover gaskets - genuine only or if replaced in the last 18 months or so, re-use

Coolant bridge dowty washers - genuine only

Coolant pipe to block - genuine only

Exhaust manifold gaskets - genuine prefered but, after market multilayer metal ones can be used e.g.:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vauxhall-Exhaust-Manifold-Gasket-Cavalier-Calibra-V6_W0QQitemZ190338439287QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2c510e1877

Manifold to front pipe gaskets - Genuine (or good pattern)

I would re-seal the oil cooler plate which requires 4 genuine metal washers and sealent.

Also get a pair of rubber O-rings for the coolant pipe to stat housing joint and re-seal the stat to block joint using the oil cooler sealent

Then its oil, filter and antifreeze

I have offered Kieran one that I have here that i think might be for a 2.5 but we need to confirm the part number.

Anyone know the part number for a 2.5 head gasket so that we can confirm. :y
