I'm dropping the engine out of my 04 CTT to change the coolant pipes and change a turbo seal and the damn howling noise from the alternator. So what else should I do while the motor is out? The car has 55K mile on it

FYI..You don't have to pull your motor to change the coolant pipes.

give it a dam good clean.
while you have the chance.

not sure why you have taken the engine out for those repairs though? they can both be done with the engine in situ.
