I got the head off and am about to start ordering parts. My question is what else to replace i am doing the maintance stuff tb, wb, plugs, tb tensioner. What else should i do that breaks i see they have alot of problems with the pcv system. Also any recomendations for were to get engine parts and what timing belts to use seems like the Volvo ones like to break is there a good after market belt to use? Any other suggestions would be good too. Was planning on getting a volvo head gasket but is there a better one going to get aftermarket bolts i know u should replace them also one broke off down inside the block got it out luckily.

Little info on the car i know they are head aches. Bought it with a miss in cyl 6 no compression let it sit for like 6 months and the timing jumped valves hit the pistions loads of fun. I think it jumped from a mouse nest under timing cover but putting tensioner on it any way. Hope u guys can help thanks in advance.
