Pretty sure you and I are running the same cams (stage 3 comp)...and I can tell you the go pedal makes them sounds so good!

Took more than a month off from it and got motivated, dont ask me how on one of the hottest days i could have picked... but I did.

As I suspected..... i went 8/8 which is 100% which is good right? Smashed all 8 intake valves


Machine shop pointed this out to me! Those are cracks in the valve...... um whoops?


Visible piston damage but cant feel any of it, just going to go over them softly to make sure they are smooth 100%


Its at the machine shop now awaiting further diagnosis if I took guides out with it or not. Then I will order valves and get it back on as soon as I can. Fingers crossed this time!

I keep thinking I'm going to see the same thing when I finally pull mine.

Sucks, but at the same time, the damage could be alot worse. Luckily it won't take too much for you to get it back together and running. Looking forward to seeing some numbers once you're up and running.
