TRINI-2-DE-BONE

Hey guys whats up I bent up my valves, and I want to beef up the motor, so I want to do the full package. Valves, spring and retainers. But I need High Pro Parts=More power. HELP HELP HELP

I would have to guess that you would have to get those parts custom made. Unless you can use 07-08 TL-S parts if they are even stronger.

I had a complete valve job done by my Acura dealer a week after i bought my CL. They paid for it all, was over $4,000 job

how did they find out it was your valves?

mechanical overev or broken timing belt?

To the best of my knowledge the option he has to replace with OEM parts. I don't know of a vendor who makes values, and valve springs for the aftermarket that are readily available.

I think it was an engine over-rev, which caused the bent valves. It was mentioned in another thread somewhere.

Yep it was over reving lol. I wanted to see the limits and I like it HE HE. But on the real. I really want to beef up the motor. But I guess its oem once again.

Not real sure how they came to the conclusion it was bent valves, they had it at the dealership for over a week. They confirmed it was from over reving, most likely a missed shift (previous owner!)

Stronger valves wont keep accidents and stupidity from happening again. If you over rev it it will happen again. Thats what happens. The price you would have to pay to make it not happen again wouldnt be worth it.

^ Upgraded internals could safely raise your rev capacity/redline, but it won't save your engine from lack of driving skills.

DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, ok guys lets get something straight, I rev the car. Cause I was about to rebuilt the internals, but before that I wanted to see the limits of my car. So I will know whats what in the future. And I got the results I was looking for. But I fond a company that will make me custom valves,springs and retainers ( the whole drive train) for 1000 bucks. So am happy about that. All they need is one of each valves

Unless you are going to build the motor stronger using factory specs, they will need more than your valves.

They will need the cc of the combustion chamber, lift and duration of the cams, tensile strength on the springs, seat and pocket dimensions, valve guide size......
I am not arguing with you, just letting you know when you send the valves in, there will be a ton of follow up questions from the manufacturer.

If you plan on doing rods and pistons, currently I only know of one choice on both.
The rods are stock dimensions and parameters, just will handle 650-700 hp utilizing the factory crank.
The pistons are special order only, and they currently only have specs on 8.0-1 compression ratio (high hp boosted motors) I have a set ordered with 9.0-1 CR for my boosted application.

If you are truly doing the build for performance, why would you go back with stock size valves? Why not go with a larger valve, port and polish the head, better valve guides and retainers and rework the pockets?

So, if you plan building the motor for more performance as you say, you will need to do alot of calculating before you jump into anything and are not satisfied on the money you spent.

he doesnt need all that ish....he is

Ok lets get something straight. I like to REV the motor as well. Doubt any ones motor has seen as much redline as mine (over 250k miles worth of daily redlining now) You cant over rev it by giving it gas. There is a limiter. Mis shifting and downshifting too soon is the the only way and doing that intentionally is STUPID. and having better valves made WONT keep it from happening again.

Hey trini how did u bend them? I knnow u sed u were goin like 150 and ur supercharged but wat exactly did u do to bend them besides revving high because i couldnt imagine reving to redline bending valves?
