Any used car that I've purchased always required replacement of most of the major electrical components and everything on the cooling system except for the radiator.

So if I had a fixed budget for preventative maintenance I'd probably be prepared to buy a battery, a starter, an alternator, top and bottom radiator hoses, heater hoses, the drive belt and a water pump. And if you decide to replace these items outright, keep some of the old parts on hand as backup because new parts sometimes fail prematurely.

I got money for another engine if need be.

I found some MAC headers on ebay for $150 shipped, and they are in great shape.
What do you guys think of that deal?

I plan on slowly replacing everything, radiator, tranny and so on. Parts are so damn cheap on these cars.

get equal length headers(but that is a good deal), 4:10 gears, intake and full exhaust to compliment the headers you get..

Is there a sticky that shows a list of parts for like
Intake manifold
headers
cam
heads
and so on

That way I can do the searching on these parts.
