The key to making a retrofitted engine live is following the directives and only retrofit a known healthy engine. If the engine has issues, rectify them and then retrofit. A retrofit is not magical.
Service every 5K miles/ 6 months (at max) and use Joe Gibbs DT40 oil.Follow the Mfr's directives concerning the interval that the retrofit bearing should be proactively replaced.
The Classic Dual Row has a 75K mile service interval. The Clasdsic Single Row has a 50K mile service interval. Neither should be operated past this mileage point.
