did you ever figure out what caused it ? or maybe what could have caused it other then the valve just breaking .....just curious ..what kind of valves were they ?

ya know i been around this sport for 32 years..and i have never seen one spit a freaking valve thru the rear exhaust like this......

damn i mean this guy i saw had headers ,bullet ( dyno max) mufflers and exhaust run out rear qtrs ( turn down) ..and it still spit the valve out that far away...
i whitnessed this 1st hand and still having a tough time believeing what i saw

i am just glad someone else knows something of this.so i don't sound quite so Crazy telling the story.. .... :roll: ops:
