And what fixes / mods have you done to the engine to deal with the multiple failure modes. (My apologies if this is covered in another thread and I missed it.)

And I think I'd want to find out if the oil filler tube is bad now, before the engine goes back into the car...
They guaranteed it for 90 days, and that includes a leak down test. Of course, if it doesn't run right, I will have to pull it again and send it back, but I suspect it won't be a problem.

I did the IMS from LNE. It's got the new style RMS, so that's not a worry. I'm just swapping all the accessories and wiring harness too. It needed a new mount also.

Oh yeah. I'm really glad I decided to check all of the hoses, tubes, wires and lines on the replacement engine. I found a vacuum line that was just cut. Easy replacement
