[Kevin Baker]

Hi Geoff
I have a 0 timed io-360 engine 
Came with a new logbook with 0 hours.

Thanks

Likely somebody else has a zero-timed engine and could give you some boiler-plate copy-cat ideas.  You do not need to carry the logbook in the airplane, so yes keep all the yellow tags together, along with making reference the previous engine logs especially if you still have them.  The old logs do not have to be a part of or appended to the “new” engine log.  Hope this helps.  EAA has a question and answer guy who you can email for stuff like this too.
