cam swap gaskets

what gaskets will i need for a cam swap? ive got an 88 305tpi. i guess i need valve cover gaskets, intake manifold(base), what else? is there anywhere i can get a kit to save some money, i know some places have them available but they all end at 1985 and i assume that means they arent for fuel injection? i dunno, thanks a lot
also what other stuff do i need for a cam swap besides the lube? special tools, etc?
