Ok, i'm getting ready to do my PI head swap.
I got 99' heads complete for dirt cheap, so....
I wanna know if I get a 00' intake, will it fit correctly?
I know i'm going to have to buy new gaskets & bolts, but is there anything else i'm going to need? Anything I should know or watch for?

you can use the bolts of your old intake
but as far as head bolts you will need some
get some arp bolts from summit cant beat the price 40 bucks
you might want to pick up the timing chain cover gaskets
its 3 pieces
othere then that your all set
also I would recommend takeing the heads to a machine shop and have then pressure checked, just to be on the safe side

How much for timing chain cover gaskets?
So the 00' intake will go fine with the 99' heads?
Where's a god machine shop to get the heads checked around our area Javi?
How much will it run me?

yea the intake will work
gaskets I figure aroud 30bucks tops
machine shop
I only go the the guy who does my motor's in mountainview
I think he charges like 100 or so

Get ARP studs instead of bolts and you'll need new valve covers because you gonna use Windsor heads.
