With the engine out of the car I know now is the time to replace all the 20 year old junk. Here is the list of what I have replaced so far or are planning to. If you guys know of anything I am missing please chime in.

energy motor and transmission mounts
aluminum radiator
water pump
fan clutch
fan
water hoses

I know there is more, just can think of them.

I'm not sure if the hoses from the heater rail to the heater core are different on a Fox and an SN. When I went to change mine this year, Ford had discontinued them and there were none left. The only place I found that had them was O'Reilly's. Just a heads up.

What about clutch cable and quadrant? Worked fine when engine was pulled. Worth it to replace?

The clutch cable and quadrant is actually easy to change with the engine in or out. I wouldn't worry about it.
