Snapped valve on dyno
So, just wondering if anyone has had an experience with snapping the bottom of the stem of a valve effectively grenading the cylinder. Had my car on the dyno making great power for what it is (tomei arms turbo kit, the bigger t2 one, 256 cams, stock bottom end with springs and retainers and ras, all tomei) then at about 395 whp and 273 wtq on a dynojet @22psi, one of my number two intake valves (it appears) decided it had enough. I know, it's was too much for the oe bottom end, but it wasn't like a rod let go. Really kinda sad because it would have been stupid fun with that much power on that small frame turbo with my nismo x 6 speed. I guess my main question it's, had anyone else snapped a damn valve stem before? Pretty anticlimatic way to pop a motor. [emoji29]
