Larry:
I agree with everything the others posted about what to have ready.
I've done it with as little as a new manifold gasket.  But I don't recommend
going that economically.

But I might add that a torque wrence is useful for getting the mainfold back
on tight enough without
stripping the aluminum head.  My 606 engine uses torx (sp?) type bolts to
fasten the manifold - so be ready in case that is what your engine has.  I
bought what seems to be a good enough 1/4" torque wrench from Harbor Freight
for ~$10 IIRC.
