Anyone have any experiences with this brand?
 
I'm still trying to find a valvetrain for my project. I know nothing about that ----, so maybe you guys can help me out. Ever heard of REV products? They seem reasonably priced in comparison. I just know how important the head is and I dont want shitty parts but I also don't want to shell out huge money for a big name. So how do these compare to big names?

Ferrea > Supertech when it comes to valves for a FI ride. I've seen numerous Supertechs break at the neck, where it's thinned down for flow reasons, on big power rides.

Skunk2 springs like to break. A local girl bought some for the Delta 272's in her Integra, broke two before she said ---- it and bought a VTEC head.

REV seems to be okay, they have a good name outside the Honduh scene. If BoostFed runs them you know they are good... he makes, what, 800 whp to run mid 10's? That's a lot of bouncing off the revlimiter and flailing around wildly with the gas pedal to go that slow, and if their product holds up to that I give them my vouch.

Spending the few extra bucks now will pay off alot more in the long run compared to a rebuild!

Grab the exhaust cam and have another person turn the engine over. Then use your new nub to fist yourself for linking to HT. :8

They already have. You get them an ITR clone cams for $99. Do a netsearch, I'm not kidding.

Supertech or bust. They originally had problems with the valve faces mushrooming out, but they fixed it. I've never seen an issue with a Supertech valvetrain in the past 2 years.

It's the last two years I've seen their intake valves break for no reason. If it's NA, they probably do well, but 100 lb springs at 9000-9500 rpm turbo car powerlevels = failure.
