GREAT pics Jake !!

Hopefully we ALL can get in on the pic taking fun *cough* Steve * cough*



Now that I see what's inside, how difficult is it to adjust all of those valves? Aren't they supposed to be adjusted every once in a while?

Keep that shade of red Jake. It looks AWESOME !!!

Adjusting the valves on these is very easy. With no1 tdcc adjust rockers 1,2,3,6,7,10. With no6 tdcc adjust rockers 4,5,8,9,11,12. Rockers are # front to back. Should only take about 3 hrs to do (5 if you've never done it)

It's on the engine data plate on your front cover. I don't know the spec off the top of my head, now if it were a dt466, dt466e, dt530, dt530ho, dt466egr I could tell ya Intake is odds, exhaust is evens I beleive (once again I.H) Double check by looking to see if the exhaust manifold is offset to the rear.

intake is .010 and the exhaust is .020. I think this runs for all variants of the ISB

the ISB is Cummins designation for the 5.9L
the 8.3's are ISC, then you have the ISM, ISX's which are new N14's I believe.

each letter has a certian meaning, I know the last letter denotes cylinder size. the first letter I always though of it being either inline or v style, however you have the QSB3.3 and I know thats an inline 4. . .
