Anything Else To Do to New (Used) Engine
Ok, a little background. I have an '03 with a fairly loud engine knock. No idea what caused it, but it's there. I'm not in the VIN range of oil pump failures, and I have installed an oil pressure gauge and have good pressure at all times. In the meantime, I found an '04 that was being parted out. I picked up the engine with about 80k miles on it. I'm getting ready to swap it over into my Disco. I've ordered new magnecors and have Bosch +4's ready to go. Is there anything else I should do to the new (used) engine before I drop it into the truck?

No need to swap the engine. It is not like Every 2003 engine in the Vin range fails!! Just a small number.
Your 03 engine might not even fail, it probably won't. Just wait till it fails. No need wasting a good engine.
