Pulled an engine/tranny from the yard - what should I do before swapping... 700

Thanks for all the advice guys. I think I'll def replace the timing belt even though the car had only been in the yard for a short time (less than 3 months, wasn't there the last time I had gone 3 months ago), but who knows how long it sat outside of the yard. And I'll def replace all the seals you guys mentioned and clean out the pan. I'll also get a magnetic drain plug. I agree that they would be much easier to do w/the engine out.

Anyone have any advice on the kickdown cable seal that got pulled out when I pulled the engine?

Thanks again!

Tim
