Default Need some small things (engine)

I am about the start the new engine on the rebuild and need some things to finish her up...

-a couple injector wire gaskets ( those small rectangle ones inside the connectors

-please let me know a good tranny oil for a ZF6 (946sp)

-looking to the rear, upper rear of motor, two bolts hold a metal line from driver side going to pass then something connects to that from around the heater core inserts. I need a new bolt..

- how tight should the oil pressure senser ect metal housing unit be going into block? I don't want to get it too tight and cut off the flow going threw..

anyone know where I can get the first couple things at?

Sorry for the randomness but these are the last questions and things I need.

You need a factory service manual before you start a project like this

Check out this thread on your ZF6 oil and make a decision. I went with the GM stuff. Sounds like your a long way from it but dont forget to not overtighten the drain plug on the tranny. Loosen the fill hole first, etc... Good Luck!
