Just a word of advice, don't pay Cummins the 1000 bucks in labor they want. Do it yourself its pretty easy with a couple buddies and a few tools. I did mine today for 230 bucks worth of parts and about 6 hours of work. That is all

And its pretty easy to go ahead and adjust your valves while you already have to valve covers off

You have to adjust the valves when you put it back together.
