Ok fellas, i need your help again. I already posted this up but got like one response. I even emailed Rocket personally and didn't get a response and it's been about 2 weeks now I am ready to order my M22's and the valvetrain package but i don't know wether to get the Gen1 or Gen2 springs/retainers?!?!? It's going in a B18C gsr with around 11:1 compression, .5 oversized valves, 6 angle valve job, port/polish, if any of that matters i just wanted to make sure everything is clear and hopefully i get a clear answer so i can hurry up and go fast

 

There was a thread about this a couple days ago and what I got from it was the gen1 valvetrain is basically for race use only because its so stiff. The gen2 is generally used for the street cars I believe. Also gen2 can handle 9500 rpms from what I've seen. I'm sure rochesterricer (I believe that's his name...?) will come in here and help you out. He was the one in the other thread I'm refering to.

 

Thanks dude, i think the other thread like I said was the one i posted. He didn't give me a clear answer but he and I both emailed Rocket and heve gotten no response yet. I hope someone knowledgable can help me out, PLEASE

 

Here's the thread I was refering to:

Gen 2's are reccomended

Rocket is on vacation right now, thats the reason for him not responding to your emial

 

Thank you sir for the clarification

Its not THAT heated. I could post quite a bit more.. I've kept it pretty mellow up to this point.

 

Well we pretty much know your opinion, so we'll keep it at that.

Whoa settle down killer. I was simply saying this to avoid more arguing between people in this post. I was stating "I know your opinion, I would like to hear other's" I have nothing against you dude. Chill out.
