New engine care? Need some info
Hey guys, once again back for some helpful info. I did search for this; but, nothing of the sort popped up.
Basically, I just had a new engine put in by the local dealer, which is a whole other story, and I would like to know the correct procedures and driving habits to make sure this one will last. Or at least not have it break down due to my unproper care. Just let me know whats up and it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again 8 owners.

Basically that's the important things to remember for the brake in period. Normal maintains is important for powertrain longevity. Now, choosing the right oil HaHa that's a different story all together . You do a search on that and you can figure out what weigh and type is right for you.
Its simple: brake the motor in properly, after brake in drive the car the way it meant to be driven- don't be afraid of redlining _it will keep your motor happy and the carbon away. Normal maintenance is a MUST with this car don't avoid checking, filling, flushing, or replacing any component. You'll pay later
You have a fresh start with a new motor, I think there's a lot of people here that would love to be in your shoes. So, be on PAR, search to boards if you have a problem- odds are you'll find the info, and just drive drive drive.
