Stock B18C1 head with C1 cams your about on the edge at 8500rpms. Put ITR inner springs on the Exhaust side and you should be good to 8800 rpms with GSR cams.

Valve doesn't close in time and it hits your piston and swak bam by motor. That's why you upgrade your valve springs and retainers.

i wouldn't even go over 8300 with stock head.

Do you guys think i'll be fine up to 9000rpm with my gsr cams, skunk2 valves, springs, and ti retainers on my 84mm b18c block built with je pistons and crower rods. t3/t4e 18+ psi all tuned by hondata properly.
