installing a used m20 what seals and parts should I change while engine is on stand?

[ill4noreason]

my list so far:
rear seal valve cover gasket
timing belt
water pump
oil pan gasket
head gasket
oil filter housing o ring
new belts and hoses
new ignition parts for complete new tune up
I just don't wanna have to do these jobs with motor in especially now that its out. I'm also gonna do a full detail of engine and engine bay...
what about fuel injectors? any other hoses? first time doing a motor swap out... thanks for any and all help

cam seal
intermediate shaft seal
front crank seal
-This ones on with a lot of torque though, so if its not leaking I'd say leave it alone
dipstick seal
oil return tube

I'd also include the intake & exhaust gaskets and injector seals. And when you replace the valve cover gasket you need the four rubber bungs.

throw a thin coat of gasket seal on the bungs and rocker gasket as they eventually sweat. You might also what to change the vacuum hoses and oil return hose. Also change all the rad hoses and heater hoses running to the back of the motor.
there is a gasket from the throttle housing you should also change and add some sealant. It for the throttle body cooling.

I wouldn't do a head gasket unless there was an issue with overheating. Everything else tho, sure

germanautoparts.com, victor reintz and i have never had a problem. i am on the westcoast and the parts ordered from there came with a pelican parts receipt? I dont know but same pricing as them and very cheep.

[ill4noreason]

yeah i am doing all seals except for head gasket found out that the head had been replaced by bmw with a dot-r head on a 90 i engine so hopefully they did a good job...

Nobody has mentioned head bolts. Aren't they a problem on these engines?

Not if the heads been done already.

[SpecM]
