so with my check coming in October im setting my parts list and also setting cash aside to help buy all this stuff. I need to replace my crankseal and i figure before winter hits and while i have the cash i may as well do a bunch of stuff so here is my list, if yall see anything missing let me know! i dont want to spend more than like 300 on all this so hopefully it goes as planned.

plenum
cap/rotor
valve cover gaskets
front crank seal
water pump and seal
timing chain/gear/tensioner/gasket
rear main seal
oil pan gasket
oil pump maybe?
by pass hose
heater core

how does it look?

 

Go ahead and do the oil pump. Also, if you have A/C, do the evap core while you have the dash out.......

 

Might also want to check/replace plugs, wires, hoses, belt, freeze plugs, t-stat, t-stat housing.

 

thanks! cooling system is done already Oh ya the evap core lol forgot about that! Im excited for the whole project EXCEPT the dash part...

 

That's why I suggest doing the evap core as well. Do it once, and don't have to worry about it again for quite some time. (hopefully....)

 

I suggest getting this, http://www.genosgarage.com/prodinfo....r=CFF-DG-0610K it will keep all the crap out of the HVAC box and getting on the cores, which I believe is the main problem with the rotting of the evap core at least.

 

agreed on the plugs, wires, 180 t-stat. sucks but you might need some new o2's as well.

just finished my rebuild this past thursday and i put most of what you are putting in mine.
