Default Good Reputable Engine Builders

I had a bad last couple of days and i got engine codes of mis fire in all 4 cylinders. NO I DIDNT MIS SHIFT! Just found out today my valves are bent and therefore pistons might be screwed. Acura doesnt want to cover it, so i will take them to court. But just in the meanwhile, other than Erik's Racing, who does good quality installs on valves, cams, valve train, and pistons?I'm thinking of ordering the Type-r cams, manifold, piston set and toda valve springs while the head is off the car. Thanks for any smart replies

peace out
Mikey

how did you bend valves then? from reving the motor to roughly around 9k? I've herad of a bunch of rsx-s bending valves from slightly over-reving to roughly 9k...

there is another post on dc5/ep3 asking about hondata if it voids your warranty and is there possible issues with the higher revs? people that have it are saying it does not void your warranty and the hondadata just changes your fuel and timming electronicly, which people have been doing for years just manually. you should go into that thread and post what happened to you. also if it really doesn't void the warranty make sure you call the better business bureau. thanks for your info
