Default Bought another Buick 3800 need advise

This is a 2004 LaSabre custom with 50K on the clock, before I put it on the road I want to replace the intake gasket and add the aluminum elbows. I have the elbows but I need advice on the gaskets. Also, the light bulb in the speedometer console is out any advice would be appreciated. I also plan on having the transmission flushed, new filter, and pan with a drain. TheReaper!

there is 6 backlight bulbs in the cluster two on tachometer 3 on the speedometer and two on fuel and temp gauge and they are soldered to board so replacing bulbs requires desoldering the old bulb and soldering new one'* back
