Default Freshen up

Hey guys,

I'm pulling the engine out of my 99 GC8 next week to fix the right hand cylinder head.

While it's out i'll also do timing belt and rear crank seal and more than likely freshen up the left hand head and find a good 2nd hand head for the right and freshen that up with some new parts too. See how the valves etc are when I open mine up before deciding which path to take.

While it's out should I do some other basic things? Bolt ons like power steering, aircon, alternator I was going to leave as they can be changed easily with the engine in. Looking for for things that are 10X easier to do while engine is out.

Engine has 200K on the clock. This is my daily runabout so cams, worked heads are not on the radar

any thoughts or ideas?
