2000 Civic Junk Yard replacement Motor
So I got a blown motor and picked up a junk yard motor to replace it. I've done a few motor replacements on rear wheel drive cars but it had been a while since I worked on fwd. Anybody have a link to a step by step guide? Also whiel the donar motor is out is there any thing I should look at replacing? It has 90k on it and ran fine.

Replace head gasket: use a precision level and feeler gauges to check block and cylinder head for straightness. If the cylinder head is warped then bring to machine shop to mill flat. Install new valve seals
Timing belt kit (replace at every 100k miles or 7 years whichever comes first): timing belt, water-pump, tensioner, alternator belt, a/c belt, steering pump belt. Crank seal, camshaft seal.
Replace with new: Oil, coolant, p/s fluid, thermostat, intake gasket, valve cover gasket & spark plug seals, spark plugs. Rear main seal, oil pan gasket. Inspect flywheel.
