A kid at my school had the exact same thing happen. No joke. The shop he took it to covered everything.

Those cams for some reason have alot of problems. Seen a few sets drop valves also. how bad is the motor damaged?

dropping valves has nothing to do with shitty cams, it only has to do with shitty retainers/valvesprings.

It bent all intake valves on 3 and 4, shitty thing is, it's a type r head so it had different valves :-( time for omni's

It's karma. Get used to it.

you do realize that onmi's are practically the same thing, right? portflow it up y0

Guy-Fast

So true

Did you run the cams in according to the manufacturer's specs?

i wanna see what skunk2 will do about this

Random Hero

yes, they broke when i was running them in. omni's are basically the same thing as skunk 2's, and thats not what caused the break, i have used stock itr valvesprings on many s2s2 setups. portflows are not anything special.. atleast their retainers aren't... They just have their own inner springs with STOCK ITR outer's.

Karma. hardly
