5spd swapping on tuesday, any last second advice?

[peanotation]

i'm pretty confident in the whole thing, but i just wanted to know if any of you who have done it have any last tips or advice before i perform surgery on my baby. tuesday's the day! thanks

Use Loctite on the important shit.
Use a good torque wrench, not one of those shitty dial indicator ones from autozone.
Don't fuck up.

Hah make sure you fill the tranny with fluid once your all done. Hate to see you finish up and take it for a drive and forget the fluid lol

O yah, and make sure that you break in the clutch properly. No launches, High rpm drives, for 500-1000 miles.
