Well coolant... All I did was drain it before cracking the engine open, then emptied the whole remaining in block with a vacuum/straw.
Main thing about oil is to make sure there's no trace of coolant left, thus after the job, drain it, put fresh oil/filter, let it run till you have time to bleed coolant of all the air, then shut down, drain again, and drive it for 500 miles or so, then change again. This is what I've been recommended, and after blowing an engine in the past after a LIM job, I take no chances anymore.
Also another question to pals with XP cams, what is your vacuum like? Idling mine seems to be around 15-16 in/hg. If I recall it's lower due to the cam & drive-by-wire TB.
