This is so true. But that engine won't willingly rev to 8K because of the limiter.

Update: don't hear any sounds, car's still as fast, everything good then?

If the car seems to drive just fine like before then I'm guessing its fine.

That is the beauty of overhead cam engines.

Can you explain that? I'm quite retarded when it comes to car internals.

The valves are in direct contact with the cams instead of push rods like in a Chevy V8, less moving parts, less to go wrong would be the simple answer.
