With the engine pulled...

OK,

What should I absolutely not forget to do once I have the engine out?

HERE IS A RUST SHOT TO MAKE ALL OF YOU FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOUR CARS.








Thanks,

GHEN

When was the last time you changed your timing and balance belts and/or cam chain and tensioner?

Well the engine is getting EVERYTHING done, I mean while I have the engine out, what else should I look at?

Clean the engine compartment real well. Replace suspension bushings with urethane, replace your ball joints, new torsion bars, upgrade to Aluminum torque tube, lightened flywheel? Spring-center clutch...
