Default Gasket kit for my 5.0?

My motor and tranny have been pulled for general freshening up and then to have my turbo installed shortly thereafter..

One thing I planned on having done was to replace most of the gaskets that I could. I see Summit carries a slew of gasket kits, several of which appear to work on my engine.

Could someone please provide advice for which kit might be best?

-Fel-Pro KS2337 ($86.95): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Fel-P...item4ceb8812cc

-Fel-Pro KS2328 ($59.25): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Fel-P...item4ceb881b2c

-Trick Flow 5140E913 ($97.95): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Trick...item4ceb883747

-Trick Flow 514E0912 ($61.95): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Trick...item56362df1fb

-Mr. Gasket 7120 ($46.95): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mr-Ga...item4ceb886faf

-Sealed Power 2601559 ($67.99): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Seale...item4ceb887ec9

-Mr. Gasket 7121 ($49.95): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Seale...item4ceb887ec9

Thanks for all the help.

Oh, and my motor is completely stock, except for the intake (a GT40 from a 2001 Mountaineer).

i used the frpp kit.worked great and had no stick head gaskets. the place i bought it from said it was a better kit than felpro.the diffrence is valve cover,head and oil pan.just ask what they have when you buy em and pick what fits your need best.

headgaskets are important... I recommend felpro 1011-1 gaskets.
also, ARP head studs are NOT a BAD idea!!!
