What motor is this? You went over the 8? Meaning you revved over 8k RPM's? If your motor isnt built for over 8k RPMs you could have floated the valves. How long was it over revved before you took it out of gear?

What to do now:
1. Pull valve cover and visually inspect condition of valve retainers/keepers.
2. Compression test on all cylinders.
3. Leak-down test on all cylinders.
4. Pray nothing was damaged

i could of sworn it went over the 8 marker, it wasnt long...but long enough to jerk my whole car forward....i poped it right in to gear right after and it drove fine...starts fine....idles fine...im just worried i ****ed it up.....i was just about to get a new vtec head but im thinking just get a new motor. im already getting a new tranny, but **** i hate to abuse my car. i never redline my car so to over rev/misshift it bothers me.........
