I'm going to be putting in a "slightly used" short block in my car within the next week or so. What gaskets, seals, etc...will I need to get. I know the obvious ones like the LIM, UIM etc..., but what else? Here's what I have so far.



Gaskets:

-UIM

-Throttle body

-LIM

-Exhaust manifold

-Down pipe

-Water pump

-Oil metering pump?

????????



Seals:

-Injector o rings

-Copper crush washers for oil fittings on block

?????



MISC:

-New thermostat

-Turbo coolant hoses

-Oil injector lines

-Turbo studs

-Mixing plate for injectors?





What else do I need? Help a brother out

thats a good list, you should additionally look at



the turbo pipe crush rings (if you have that apart)

all the water hoses

what about your clutch?

Turbo pipe crush rings? you mean for the oil lines on the turbos?



The motor is only gonna be in there for maybe 2 months so I'm not gonna do a clutch or tear down right now. That comes later with a bunch of other goodies



Trans front seal? For the input shaft?
