When me and Rawze rebuilt mine we found many skipped steps, and the wrong internal parts, from injectors to pistons and even the camshafts. The motor maybe had another 20,000 miles to go before she blew apart, the scissor gear on the injector cam was ready to fail. Lower end looked like they dry started the motor, oh, and they did not machine the block and or shim the liners. A minor missed step that took out my head in 70,000 miles.

Cost me a lot of money, two in frames in two years. I parked the truck and am back working in the oil fields.

You do have the turbo and EGT (Pyrometer) gauges installed, right?

Yeah it's ran great since the rebuild. Except a couple things that I didn't do when we rebuilt. Turbo and fuel pump. Those are changed now
Cummins came out and did some of the internal work when it was out of the truck.
Yup pyro gauge was installed when it was de-mandated
