Swapping a ls1/t56 into a M3, what should be PM? Got a pullout from a 2002 f-body on the way with 80k miles. Id like to perform any preventative maintenence and upgrades while the engine/trans is out of the car and easy to access.
While i have the engine out what should be replaced?
SO far I am doing:
cam install (ls2 timing chain necessary?
front and rear main seals
clutch upgrade...is the stock flywheel good with a resurfacing?
TIA

May as well do the chain and pump while its all apart for piece of mind. Just don't mess up the o-ring.
I'd do a tuneup as well. Maybe a water pump if you have the funds.
