I am pretty sure their engine didn't make good power because the cams were too small, it had a stock head, possibly the headers and exhaust were a wrong match and RWD drivetrains eat about 5-10% more power on the dyno than FWD. That being said, I don't think making maximum streetable power was their goal, it was more about reaching 10k rpm. The build and parts selection were solid.

With a stock bottom end, I would not take it past 8k. If you do track days, 7800 is a good limit. The rod bolts can break. Excellent head choice BTW. We rev VTC engines to 9k plus a little. You probably can check piston-to-valve and valve-to-valve clearance with a borescope. We use clay. You need to lock the VTC in the max advanced position when doing this. The good thing about running a 4P combo is they probably can tell you whats safe because they engineered the combo, if you mix and match parts, that's when you need to check clearances yourself.

@motoiq thanks for your response!!

what are your thoughts on DC cams compared to Skunk2 cams? Local shop I’m planning to use for my K24 build (if I decide to go through with it) is recommending Skunk2 cams… is there something about the DC that makes the better?
