One more question...What periodicity of adjustment of valves for Kat 400? Miles/seasons/months? Or nothing special?

unless they get noisy or you do stratospheric mileages, id check them once a year, when you do its service, oil filters and plugs. if they get noisy, then have a look, but otherwise id just give them a look at when you do everything else.
