== The engine brake should NOT be run on its highest setting for the first 50k miles.

== At 50k miles, the overhead valves need to be re-adjusted and then you can use the engine brake on high after that.

Ok. Is rotella still one of the better oils for these cummins or is there something better out there? I usually use donaldson filters heard before maybe they were little better then fleetguard but I can't prove that.
