How is it for starting when cold. Valve recession and piston protrusion comes to mind for me. Case had a lot of problems with their smaller diesel engines with piston protrusion after overhaul.

I realize very few ever measure piston protrusion over the block when tearing down and engine and comparing it to the new pistons but it is one of those things that just gets overlooked. Then there is the problem of what the heck do you do about it if you are not satisfied with the protrusion. Some engines, like the CDC 5.9 (cummins) offers different thickness head gaskets for different measuring piston protrusion.
