Okay Dimitri's enthusiasm has spurred me to think about replacing the
headgasket on my '78 240D so I'm now looking at the while I'm there list.
If I've got to go that far into the engine what else should I probably be
doing? Thus far I'm thinking timing chain and guides, anything else to put on
When I replaced my timing chain this winter, I didn't end up replacing the
large banana rail and left lower guide due to access issues. With the head off,
I imagine that they are accessible. I have these two parts new in wrapper ready
to donate if you want

Intake and exhaust manifold gaskets?
Oil filter to block gasket?
Block heater?
V-belts?
Thermostat?

Should be in the headset.
How about spare bolts/nuts for the exhaust pipe? Hose for between
the t'stat and WP?
Seals for Inj nozzle holders?

Turbo drain at the block is gonna be virtually free. When I pulled the head on
one of mine, I left the manifolds attached.
Don't forget to buy a new chain tensioner gasket.

New head bolts? Do those get replaced?

Generally not on a 616, unless it has been apart before, or many times before.

Drop the oil pan and swap out the gasket. Clean the intake and exhaust
manifolds. Refinish the exhaust manifold to remove rust/corrosion and give it
a good painting.
