Man Satan is pissed at me, they regret giving me a new engine under warranty. My buddy Jeff let me work on my old engine when he pulled it out of the car for me. I had thought I had a spun bearing and I shot a rod threw the back of the block. Anyway we took off the head today and man did I fuck that engine up! Well I don't think I spun a bearing because there was no play around the crank. Jeff said I just over reved the bitch. The connecting rod to the crank shaft snaped sending the piston straight into the head cracking the piston into three different peices. The force also bend all 4 valves in that cylinder.

Anyway now that I got the head off and I need new valves might as well upgrade now. What do you all recomend? And some where that can overnight them to me by Monday, Jeff says he wants the fuckin car off his lift because he's loosing money by not moving on to other cars.

It don't look like I am going to be able to get any more warranty work out of this dealership.

They are mad becuase it's clearly came from abuse to the engine. Plus all the mods I have on the engine, they know I abuse the hell out of that engine.

I still say spun bearing. My rod was curved almost like a J. The piston was broken in 4 big pieces and cracked all across the top. The head was fucked and the valves were fucked. The bearing goes and the rod knocks and then when it breaks the engine is fucked. Your whole story sounds just like mine 1 year ago. Good luck. And BTW I did get more warranty service from them when I had knock on the new engine and got a new crank and bearings.

As far as valves go, www.cnnpracing.com has valves that are 1mm oversized which increases flow and compression. Compression goes up about 0.4:1

Yeah I like the Rage unndercut valves from nemo, but I've heard mixed reviews about their customer servicec and prompt shipping etc.
