Have you left a wire off a sensor somewhere when you replaced the engine?
Vandals and graffiti "artists" do everyone a favour and target parking meters and fixed speed cameras only. |

Check that the nut on the back of the alternator is tight. The one that holds the main wire to the battery.
Check your charging rate.
