Add to Martin G's and David T's recommendations: - Have extra copper banjo washers on hand (some always fall and get lost when removing/reinstalling fuel system) - Replace O rings for coolant distribution pipe - Replace or eliminate steel pipe in the heater core return line - Replace vacuum lines while so accessible I'd also consider replacing 7mm bolts on the coolant distribution pipe with stainless studs and nuts from Rob Grady. Bolts that hold the pump are very common 8x1.25, if you want to replace them with studs as well. Steel and aluminum weld themselves together in the presence of moisture (leaking coolant). Stainless on stainless however remains easily removeable. Doesn't matter if studs weld themselves to the block -- all you care about is turning the nuts.
