engine ordered. what else?

Hi again. Got the engine lined up, now to arrange the work with local dealer or possibly do the swap in my garage.
Was hoping you guys could recommend what else to replace / upgrade or just check while I'm at it. Car is new to me so the more I learn the better. Also think I will put stock pulley back on and have dealer flash it( it is my understanding that this is all I need to go back to stock) just until I make sure everything is 100 percent.
So please pitch in looking for any kind of useful information. Like I said I don't know much myself. Thanks

Brand new original ones? Or is there a specific kind everyone likes and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Not looking for very stiff ones though, want it to still ride nice. Thanks

I'd look for OEM since they were designed for comfort. Many online MB dealers sell them.

Trans mount is also easy and cheap to replace.
