Post Maintenance Schedule

I'm putting together a maintenance list for my build and was looking for opinions/advice regarding what other people are doing on a regular basis.

Realize that people's opinions on intervals are never going to agree, so explain why you do it your way - not why someone else is an idiot for doing it their way. This is going to be a comprehensive list, so that it may seem WAY over done at one point and everything may not apply to you. Hopefully once this is rounded out everybody can refer to it, editing it for personal use.

Here's the list, and it will be edited as people's advice is added:

Every Fill Up/Every Start
Check engine oil
Check coolant level
Check tire pressures/spinners

500 Miles
Change engine oil and filter

1000 Miles
Change engine oil and filter
Check tightness of all chassis bolts
Adjust valve lash (solid lifters)

Every 3000 Miles
Change engine oil and filter
Check clutch/brake hydraulic fluid
Check engine drive belts for wear and tension
Adjust clutch play
Grease the lower spherical joint of the front shock

Every 6000 Miles
Inspect front brakes
Check timing
Check tires for wear
Alignment

Every 12,000 Miles
Check transmission fluid
Grease rear axle and driveshaft universal joints
Grease front upper and lower ball joints and outer tie rod ends
Inspect hoses and belts for wear
Change lifters

Every 24,000 Miles
Change PCV Valve

Every 24 months
Change coolant
Check rear brakes
Apply anti-seize to spinners

Every 3 years
Flush and replace brake fluid
Check valve lash (hydraulic lifters)
Clean/replace air filter
Change fuel filter

ERA Registry Map

If you have an ERA and want to be listed, contact me with your info and I'll put it up. The minimum info I need is chassis number and location. The rest is up to you. The most information needed would be: chassis number, body type, city, name, CC nickname, and email address.
