In my prior 8V92 Detroit in my prior Wanderlodge I had warpage of my exhaust header due to the prior owner not cooling down engine after long hours on road. I would watch pyrometers and engine temp to cool and then shut down engine. This avoided warpage of the headers.

With the S60 and Prevost's lack of awesome gauges like Bluebird provided, what is a good practice to adhere too, and any gauge recommendations to look at?

I keep my engine high idle on for 5 minutes after I stop to let the engine cool down and allow the turbo to cool as well. It worked for me with 97 Bluebird, 06 M 450 and both the Prevost the 04 XL2 and now 03 H345. Welcome to Prevost you can also get information from Prevost Service Center around the country unlike what was available for us with the Bluebird.
