Default Engine Swap TLC

hey I understand you get small warranties on used motors when you do the swaps but I feel my motor should get some love, since I do not know whats good and bad on it? What are some things that everyone checks and replaces first when they get their swaps? Besides the Oil? I want to start fresh and ex. spark plugs... please help

Yeah VTAC pretty much covered it, do a basic visual inspection on mostly everything else...brake checks etc.
