bumpytruck Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I have and old dumptruck I'm trying to keep running. It dropped a valve and I replaced the piston and the head. The motor came set up with a Jacobs engine brake. It did not work. My parts motor had a Dynatard on it. I did not care if the engine brake worked or not, so I replaced the Jacobs with the dynatard components because it was a much simpler set up. Will this work? I don't care it the engine brake does not work, my concern is that the Dynatard system has a special camshaft that my motor with the Jake brake does not have. My question is... will the motor run properly like this? I understand I will not have a engine brake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETAZ673 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 what are you going to do with the jake that you removed from the offending engine? I would be interested in it if you want to sell it. the engine should run ok with the Dynatard set up, not sure what valve lash specs you would use though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
