if the whole engine/tranny is pulled I would change the tranny fluid and engine oil

Also remove the spark plugs, and pour some oil down into the combustion chamber then put the spark plugs back in place...so that the oil can keep your cylinder walls lubed up.

Plug up any oil/coolant/vacuum lines so garbage and junk doesn't get into it and it should be fine
