Default Post-Deployment Projects

Here's the scoop: My headers need to be replaced, and I want heads. I just want to maximize all the *little* projects while I'm in there. For example:

1) Swapping to the LS6 valley cover (PCV)
2) Putting new LS7 lifters in
3) Replacing motor/tranny mounts with Prothane

Am I forgetting anything? Anyone have any golden nuggets they'd like to share?

LS2 lifter trays, stronger than LS1's and won't let the lifters turn out of round.

Look into upgrading the trunion for your rockers, and plan to install new head gaskets and head bolts.
