Dropping the engine soon (next week). Although replacing the oil cooler seals was easy without dropping the engine, the cooler itself was toast.

So, new cooler and seals are on their way from autoAtlanta, as well as new seals for the pushrod tubes. Anything else I should touch up while it is down? It is going to be sitting on the tangerine racing engine removal plate. The seals on the side of the transmission need to be replaced. Is that something I can do without pulling the transmission apart?

I have ordered the cv gaskets as well.
