Message	I have the motor out of the car and will be having it rebuilt, I plan to replace all hoses, replace all the wire loom and clean up the bay in general. Any suggestions on other things to do/things to replace while the engine is out? Things that are much easier to replace now that may need to be done in the future? Thanks
