1. Recommended oil weight is 5w-30 for 18 and 0w-40 for 19. Why did it change and what should I be using for better maintenance?
2. Heard catch can is installed from the factory. Am I acknowledging correctly?
3. What are some of the common issues for this vehicle, and recommendations for the proper maintenance?
4. What oil temp is considered as fully warmed up?
Other than these questions I have, would be great if you guys can tell me anything so that I can learn this monster faster.
Thank you and please don't hate me for being previous Ford owner :(

1. You should go to 0W-40
2. There is no factory catch can. Some here have added a Mighty Mouse or Elite Engineering catch can
3. Not sure we have well documented 'common issues'. If you are going to track the car, you should be changing engine oil/brake fluid more often. Many of us have changed the oil twice by 1500 Miles (500 & 1500). Break in is 1500 Miles, so try not to go WOT prior to that and try to keep it under 4K RPM.
4. Oil 150+, Coolant 160+
