Add this to some problems:
When driving, heavy or not, my brake light comes on. Sometimes it just stays on until I turn the car off, other times it'll go out on its own. This problem was not occurring before the motor swap. Plenty of brake fluid.

are the reverse lights plugged in. or maybe you damagaed the reverse switch during the swap.
your oil light..are you using the same sending unit as the k8. some cars like probes and mx6's have a different oil pressure sending unit since they have a gauge. therefore if you run that one the oil light will always be on.
