Engine out of the car, what should be mandatory replacement?
I want to know what should be replaced when the engine is out of the car on a stand and ready to be worked on. Just core essentials.
Tell me what bearings and or seals should be changed, I'd also like to know why they need to be changed in order to understand their importance. This is without dissasembeling the short block..
any ideas?
thanks guys.

All gaskets that were removed during disassembly.
Oil cooler banjo crush washers
Throwout and pilot bearing
Might as well do rear main seal (it's cheap)
Clutch (unless already new)
Tranny front seal if it's never been done
All vacuum lines and coolant hoses
Fuel filter
Spark plugs and wires
Metering oil lines if old
Edit...
Also belts
Any damaged electrical connectors
