checked on the first vid, why are the number 3 valves clicking when you move the rocker up/down. do you not set the last or had you already loosened them? .008'' doesnt make that much of on audible click.

The valves themselves. I've never seen a Supertech spring break, or retainer split, and the stuff is used a lot. I'm not as inclined to trust them as I am Ferrea, given the situation, you know.

Tappet Clearance:
Intake: 0.007” (cold)
Exhaust: 0.008” (cold)
Once more when the car had been running for around an hour. I had planned on setting them again when the rings had been seated properly and the oil changed( after figuring out the random fuel cut which I had solved)
What the ----, buy the best parts and the ---- is still ------- garbage. Can you imagine if we were not idling and I was somewhere around 9500rpm/25lbs boost when this ---- let go? I had another problem with this motor when it came from Laskey. The rings on piston #4 were all lined up together and not staggered like ever other motor in the history of fossil fuels. I thought this ---- was invincible thats why I bought it, to avoid ---- like this. I am not a ------- Honda guru genius so I figured let someone else who does this everyday and apparently has a SFWD racecar. The thing is I don't know all the Honda tricks/shortcuts yet because this is my first build that requires skill, so learning is a slow process. I need some adult supervision basically. Almost to the point of parking the car, throwing a tarp over it and building a stock D till I can do this ---- by myself.

* Good news, the fuel cut issue is solved on stock injectors & the injector driver is wired correctly so when I re-install the head I can throw the big injectors in, and I also have a Hondata intake mani gasket so I guess everything is technically re-usable* The shitty part is that it takes 2 people 15 minutes to pull that ------- turbo out. Smashed pics to follow

Looks like one set of valves fucked up. collateral damage to the other pistons. came out the intake, into the intake manifold into the other pistons.
How the ---- did this happen so quick. as soon as ---- started to hit the fan I shut the car off. and we pushed it back. all this at max 2000rpm
