I'm going to be taking out my tranny on Sunday to send my clutch and flywheel to South Bend Clutch to get fixed, what are some of the gaskets should I replace while I have the chance?

I'm ordering ARP flywheel bolts, new intake and exhaust manifold gaskets, new J tube gasket, rear main seal, just put on new valve cover gaskets, camshaft gaskets. Anything else I should do While the tranny is out?

I'll be taking out my entire IC kit and turbo to clean the engine bay and clean it all up.

Replace what's leaking as your engine was rebuilt already, right?

It was rebuilt about 3.5 years ago. I just figured that I would replace anything that I could while I had a lot more room to work with. I just don't want to do this again anytime soon as it is my daily driver for now.

Also getting new rear seal for tranny and getting some new tranny fluid.

Guess I'm one of those "don't fix it if it isn't broke" people. Install a seal wrong and it will leak badly in no time at all, if it isn't leaking by now you probably have a good couple years before it might.

I think your tranny is a used one though, so I'd go ahead and replace the seals in that. I'd be interested to see pics of the clutch parts after you pull it out as well.
