Anyone have any problems with retainer failure or coil bind with their aftermarket valvetrain parts?
Specifically with replacement springs/retainers with higher lift/duration cams on their H22???
I remember in the B16/18 world that there was a rash of Crower retainer failures at high rpms. I know the H22 is not revving up to 9,000, but has anyone had an issue with this??
I'm personally looking at Skunk/OBX/Crower Stage 2 cams, and want to ensure that I don't run into issues when/if I bump the rev limiter up to 7,800-ish.
Tanks.
