2. Yes FAI stuff is good quality in my experience
3. The xsi exhaust gasket will be fine
4. Check the piston rings. Don't want to make the same mistake that I just did. Easy to get the pistons out once the heads off
5. Do NOT turn the engine over without the head. You will lift the liners out and then it's all got to be taken apart to reseal them.

I have seen a sump gasket before I'm sure... But instant gasket or similar would be fine.

All the ones I've worked on didnt have but could be different for dervs?
