Unfortunately while taking a break over the memorial day weekend, then taking a few weeks to get resubscribed to the vanagon list, my motor das kaput.

So im purchasing a rebuilt longblock and the local Mechanic is removing/installing for me.

Is this a good time to also ______ ?

Im throwing around the usual suspects, external oil cooler, perhaps some guages to monitor my new rebuild?

It isn't that warm here on the northern california coast, so I dont know that an oil cooler would be really worth it, but perhaps a CHT guage from Dakota Digital?

any tips, suggestions or misc tomfoolery welcomed.
