I'm sure Steve(psulemon) will agree that while you have the motor out check the the upper and lower timing chain tensioners and guides. You don't want to fool around with them while the motor is in the car. The upper ain't too bad but the lower one, well lets just say that Steve and I didn't suceed through a whole weekend because of no space to work with. Might want to take throttle body cleaner and clean out the intake manifold and the different valves with the intake. Also check the motor mounts and make sure the motor mount inserts arent too spungy. Thats about all I can think of other what's already been mentioned.
