    That video and some of the related ones are sweet. You don't often get to see the inside of an engine while it's running.

    This says it eliminates the valve spring issues. I'm kinda curious as to how it works.

    Just keep that video in the back of mind the next time your WFO for a few minutes. It might take a few extra beers to wash the memory away.

    Comp has some really good Spintron video's showing how the springs spin, and dance. Heck you want to see something scary watch a push rod at 10,000 RPM when you shift..

    We spent a bunch of time on the spintron when we built our A and B class engines. We ran those engines at almost 7800 RPM. At one point we could watch the bottom of the valve spring jump up off the spring seat quite a bit.
