Yes you'll have to replace the head bolts. As IHateHacks posted, ARP is the way to go when replacing them, wether you do head bolts again, or go with head studs. Head studs is the prefered item to put on your car for the stated reasons in his post.
If you DO decide to replace the head gasket after purchase, make sure you burp the coolant system properly after refilling. The "waterfall" sound will annoy the hell out of you if you don't. Look in the FAQ section here, there's a good write up on it, as well as how to reduce the problem in the future by modifying the thermostat.
