Question What else to change?

I just ordered the Supermaxx headers off of the GP and I was thinking... When I go to install these, is there anything else that I should change out while I've got the car up in the air and stuff removed. All I could think of is to change the plugs and wires. Would this be a good idea? Is there anything else I should change at the same time?

Oh and the car only has 23,000 miles on it

Thanks guys

Poly urethane motor mounts. After I installed my LT's I couldn't get the y-pipe to stop banging. I installed poly urethane motor mounts and haven't heard the y-pipe since. It was a kinda a pain to install them with the LT's in. It would be a piece of cake to install them while your doing the headers. Just my opinion.

I'm also pretty sure that I'm going to go with the Taylor Thundervolts 10.4 mm wires with the NGX iridium plugs. That along with the motor mounts. Is there anything else that I should be looking to change??? Opinions??? Anyone
