It dosent have a AFR rev-kit. I miss wrote that. It has the Anderson #51018 hi-rev springs. Same springs NMRA pure street guys use. Awesome springs ! they claim 8200 rpms with no valve or lifter float. Thats true.

I was out on road a couple nights ago testing my car for race season. I happened to see just how high this engine could rev with a near-stock valvetrain. After doing a burnout I tached it out, bouncing off the rev limiter at 7500 rpms. The engine is a near stock 302 bottom end with a custom lunati cam with 250 duration @0.050, 605 lift. untouched afr 185s with AFR hi-rev springs. trickflow r intake & more.
I heard AFR heads are having alot of problems with dropping valves at low rpms (like 6000-6500). Is this true? Should I have any worry of dropping a valve with these heads.
