Now is a great time to start cleaning and repainting the crossmember and the rest of the engine bay. Also be sure to check things like your rubber engine mounts.

Yeah good idea, you think I should change all the sensors and injectors too?
it did run good before the tear down though.

This is a good time to reseal things. Any place where you see leaks, replace gaskets and seals. Take a good look at your underhood wiring. By now alot of the factory corregated loom has gotten brittle and broken off. Replace it now while it's all accessible Repair/replace any bare wires or broken connectors.
