Aerovee Pre-Assembly Checklist/Shopping List

Has anyone put together a list of materials and things to gather up, and commonly done tasks to do that aren't covered in the assembly manual?
I'm thinking like time-serts for the spark plugs, buying all the appropriate loctite compounds, and stuff like that.
My engine kit is coming soon and I'm trying to brainstorm everything I'll need so I don't have to stop and wait for anything else to arrive once I start!

Watch the video. He starts out with a list of tools and supplies that you need for the assembly.

Also read every page of the assembly manual and write down all the sealants needed. Most of my engine build time was spent running to auto parts stores to find what I needed.

Oh good point on the video. I ordered it with the engine but I guess they're just waiting to ship everything together. I'll call them and ask them to ship it first so I can study!
Yeah 50 trips to AutoZone is what I'm trying to avoid haha!
