Depending on what they send you should need a basic tune-up. At least oil change and filter. I'm not sure if they are included but sometimes you'll need upper and lower radiator hoses, fuel line, throttle cable, and various little hoses depending on what they send. I know most of the time they clean the motors with water which means if it sits for a while the plugs and wires will need to be replaced because of water in the spark plug holes. Also the distributor cap and rotor can get crummy because of the water too.

Just wait and see what shows up and buy the rest.

You'll also want to change the timing belt and waterpump. I know that they say it only has XXX amount of miles, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Plus it is much easier to do with the motor out of the car...

Good Luck...

be prepared to get new axles,i just did a swap and the only reason it did'nt finish the first afternoon was the cv's were destroyed

depending on the radiator you're using, you will need to do some hose modification...

i didnt have to change anything on my motor from HMO.
it was in GREAT condition
it needs a valve adjustment but thats understandable
the only thing i would say to do is
1) spark plugs
2) timing belt
3) valve adjustment
4) distributor timing
everything else should be great
