Default cylinder head question

hello all, i had just recently stripped my head, cleaned and had it skimmed.
few questions..... 1. i am going to fit new valves, do these need to be lapped in? 2. as the head has been skimmed what head gasket will i need to use? ideally i want to use a genuine ford one, can this be done? thanks.

Yes lap valves, yes you can and should use a Ford (or Payen) head gasket.
