New Engine to replace 53

My truck is done. I bit the bullet and got a remanufactured long block. Also got a remanufacture vacuum pump, and new lift pump. I need to pick it up in the morning. I had Forest Diesel in St. James, MO do the work. What a great guy! Any break in information would be helpful. I am just excited to not have't to smell antifreeze all the time. It was $$$ but with the economy, worth it to me.
