Can I just replace the head gasket and be done with it?

Suddenly, things are going from bad to worse right now with my vehicles (my 900 and my wife's SUV have decided to cause me grief as well), so my time and money is extremely limited. Saab continuum???
I have read the replies to my earlier thread (thank you, all), but at this point, all I want to/can do is replace the head gasket on my 9K. In trying to build my parts list, I know I need a head gasket set and the new "old style" head bolts. I'll also be replacing the turbo gasket as that is leaking. I have all the tools and fluids. Anything else?
I figure since the car only has 96K on it, and has been maintained very well, all other items should be okay, and if not, will be replaced at the time they decided to die.
Thanks!
Joe
