Can you elaborate on the idle "issue" that you're experiencing?

Tim_EG

On both the motors the first 10-15 seconds of start up car idles normal then after that it just starts bogging up and down like from 1k-3k

Rapidly? Or gradually?

You check the o2 sensors? When you first start a car while it's in open loop it's reading off engine sensors while the o2 sensors warm up to work properly. Once the car starts to warm up the o2 sensors kick in. Atleast that's my understanding and if I'm wrong, someone please correct me. So if it's fine when you first start but not after. Could be that.

Only thing I can think of that would remain the same in the car that affects performance after a complete engine swap. Other than clogged fuel filter / lines / or faulty fuel pump.
