Finally, my motor went.

I must say, I pushed it for a long time... so this was bound to happen. I was simply driving home a few nights ago and did a full boost (30psi) pull, right at redline in 2nd gear I got valve float. I have had the rev limiter set at 7500 for about 5 months, but it was pure luck I made it that long on a stock head. I was barely able to make it home, the car barely ran.

Im hoping the bottom end is ok, and just some minor damage done to piston tops.

Garm, I noticed you carry upgraded valve springs, Ill be contacting you soon about those and a intake manifold. Also cam options, if there are any.

I was able to squeeze 60k miles out of this motor without any snags until now!
