pulling motor

[TreFlip]

and wondering what i should replace while its out.
so far ive got

-clutch kit
-rear main seal
-motor mounts
-tranny mounts
-oil pan gasket

anything else i should replace that im not thinking of?

if your taking ou tthe trans as well, the shift selector seal and the output seal ont he trans

All the seals on the front too... It just depends on how much tear down you are doing.

The Cam sprocket seal should be done for sure. The front main seal is good to do too... but that bolt has a hecka lot of torque on it.

Why is the engine out? Are you just painting or something?

The oil filter adapter has some O-Rings that can be replaced too.

I would suggest new shifter mount bushings too if they haven't been done. The bitch clip is a lot less bitchy if you do it while the transmission is being reinstalled.

timing belt/tensioner
maybe get a z3 shifter

well im pulling it to swap it in a better body. it has a new head and one it was done i drove it 10 miles back to my house and blew the oil pan gasket. then found a way better body/ slightly better interior e30 for cheap so im dropping it in that one and parting out the other.

im not going to tear it down to much because honestly i want it drivable asap

it has new head, timing belt, tensioner, water pump, and other tune up stuff. just looking at what i should be doing besides changing the clutch and oil pan gasket that should be for sure taking care of.

thanks

if you don't plan on removing the timing again, I can't think of anything you didn't already mention

[supernaughtIX]

he might have a hard time finding a timing chain if he did want to remove one

[rThor432]

I dont think anyone said anything about a timing chain.

Consider a rebuilt Drive shaft. Always a PITA if you have to drop the exhaust, and risk stripping the nutz at the manifold or twisting out studs.... If you already have one.. GREAT!
