Make sure there are no broken off bolts in the alternator, PS, smog pump, AC mounting bracket holes.

The machine shop does not always see these and remove them.

If your water temp sensor is screwed into the side of the head,make sure it is on the correct(driver's) side so the wire will reach.Sometimes those plugs can be a PITA to remove after the engine is in the car.
