Replacing Exhaust Gaskets Question

While replacing Exhaust gaskets, are there any components that can be replaced during the process? Is replacing wires and plugs easier during the gasket change? Anything else? Thank you.

Not much else to be replaced, but I'd pick up some extra manifold studs. They've got a tendency to shear off when unbolted.

Second that. I always spray a little wd40 or light oil on the studs before I start in the hope that if they make it the first quarter inch they will come off smoothly. There is no joy in a broken stud.
