Default project for the enda the month... make sure i didnt forget something

ok so at the end of the month im taking off fri-sun and doing a few things w. the stang

new trans(besides the new trans i dont think i need anything, clutch is practically new, so bell housing isnt even gonna come of the motor)

replace oilpan gasket...(new oil and gasket... nothin else i need right?)

and finally replace a head gasket(while im doing one ill do the other, and if i have it that far apart i need to do all of them above it too... so thats head gasket, lower intake gasket, and upperintake gasket, and new head bolts(cant reuse the old ones correct?)

and new motor mounts cuz ones broke... which should i go w? i heard solid ones are better?

Never experienced them first hand but I wouldn't want them. Not a fan of unnecessary vibration.
