Having engine lifted, what should I replace while it's out?

So the obvious ones are the 2 motor mounts, I found these OEM style ones on Summit: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/ani-2250 anything else you guys recommend replacing while the engine is off its mounts? Lifting it to make way for the the oil pan on a 360 on a 74 Charger frame that just would not come out.

By the way I got one quote for $700, will make a few more calls.

Headers and starter motor
 
I would rebuild the k member completely. Entire front end essentially. It is usually totally shot or going shot. This is money well spent and the car will handle like new. i have just had the k member done on my 66 and my 72 and they handle like new cars. I used the original rubber type parts. I didn't want any poly squeaking parts.
 
Those mounts you linked to will not fit a 74 Charger. You need spool type mounts.

That's right, it's the Challenger w/ a 360 those mounts will work for, otherwise they're for the 440 Chargers. THANKS!
 
Steering coupler and anything else that's a bitch to get to with the engine in place.
 
freeze plugs (make sure to get the ones between the block and trans), and use brass

oil pan gasket

consider the rear main seal if it even weeps

Small leak from thermostat gasket (permatex). What quality part should I buy? Would you replace just the gasket or housing or housing and thermostat?
