mild re-build

[airFS]

I was looking into having my piston rings and headgasket replaced and while the engines apart what else should I look into replacing? I was thinking some arp head studs, oem 2g pistons w/ rings, some sort of quality head gasket, and probably a new clutch and flywheel. I'm not after big power or some special number for my car, but I beat on it every day so I'm looking for it to be as reliable as possible.

i would remove balance shafts! new clutch flywheel gasket kit, hone the block! new t-belt, 4 layer metal hg, springs and retainers since the head is off build the engine then if later you want to add then you can and not have to do it twice!!!
