Default 89S4 Intake manifold

I'm getting ready to remove the intake to replace a TPS. First time I have done this. I have read a lot of threads on this. Are there any trouble spots aka tips that would be helpful when doing this. Yes, I plan on replacing the knock sensors, hall sensor, idle sensor, all of the gaskets and hoses. Using the kit form 928 specialists. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I am a little nervous I must say in doing this.

might want to replace the flappy pot and also all of the fuel lines if that hasnt been thought of, also how many miles are on the car you might also consider getting a new set of 4 pintle fuel injectors instead of cleaning the old ones check Ebay about 220.00 for a new set that drop in only the lower O rings need to be swapped you need 19 lb injectors from a mustang 5.0

Double check all the vacuum connections. I used wire ties on those with no clamps
