Default pre-installation suggestions

I'm dropping a 99 trans-am LS1/T56 w/33k miles into a 93 rx7. Is there any maintenence or necessary items that need replaced or checked (gaskets, etc.) while i have the motor out?

I will be replacing the oil pan gasket, and clutch and flywheel with an LS2/LS7 clutch/flywheel.

Thanks.

Since your pulling the oil pan. Slap a new GM o-ring on the oil pickup tube.(Where the tube bolts to the pump)

ok, I bought the car as an unfinished project, and the previous owner has the oil pickup tube and windage tray out of the motor, and in my collection of parts somewhere...
