Maintenance schedule after an inframe

[Kljjr0456]

Just got my truck back from having an inframe done. In my excitement to get it home I realize I forgot to ask when I should have the over head done since the head is new along with the cam. It is cm 2250. I plan to call the shop in the morning to see what they suggest but I have been an avid reader on here lately and would also like to hear your opinions. Thanks in advance [/size]

Adjust the valves again in 40,000 - 60,000 miles.

Stay off the high engine brake unless it is an emergency until then just for safety sake until you get that second adjustment done. -- New heads can have just enough valve lag, or just enough settling to cause severe engine damage with engine brake on high until everything is worn in a bit and valves are set that second time.

Wow, 40-60K would be near 2 years, less time by hours, with heavy loads and not using full Jake,,, I would never make it that long.

Then do it in about 800 engine hours instead of the mileage.
