What to do while motor is out?
So I pulled my B16A out today so I can paint my engine bay and I was wondering, since it's out what can I do to it? I know I can do timing belt and water pump. What else? I'm talking about what kind of maintenance I can do to the motor that will be harder when its in the car.

Wire tuck?
Are you talking about just appearance stuff?
I mean theres a shitload you can do to the motor while its out. Depending on how much $$$ you got.

are you talking about the engine or the bay? I think you should shave the bay and paint it some ballin *** pink color and then a wire tuck.

So why is the motor out? Since the motor is out you might as well...
REPLACE
- Oil pump/oil pickup
- Timing belt/water pump
- Rear main seal
- Crank seal
So later on down the road you won't be mad when your seals start to leak. I'm sure there is more you can do, but these are things that should be taken into consideration.
