    Not to talk shit or anything, but putting a valve through a piston is fairly common on ANY car that is beaten. It happens quite frequently when someone accidentally mis-shifts and the car revs up to 10,000+. Generally when this happens the valves go through the pistons and end up looking like a bunch of flattened quarters sitting in the oil pan. It doesn't matter if the car is n/a or forced induction. I'm not saying that it happens every time someone mis-shifts, but it does happen.

        I have personally never seen a valve ruin a piston in a DSM due to a broken or slipped timing belt in my time. That isn't saying that it can't happen, but just my experience. From my experience, the valves have just left a little mark in the piston and the valve is bent to shit.

                  Regardless of how you act now, it doesn't redeem what you acted like in the past.

                  I've stopped trying to keep track of everybody that re-signs up becuase its nearly impossible to try and keep track of them all.

                    I agree 110% with Jim on this one. Its nothing against you personally Jon, its just that you seem to consistently break the rules set forth by this website. Lately you have been decent, which is why I have never bothered to re-ban you even though by rights I should, as I have banned others that have come back and/or used someone elses account (example: Adam Drake)

                      okay so i mightve said whatever dumb shit in the past to back myself up...
                      not really sure what you two are talking about on how i acted in the past but if its about the theft thing....i've been to court 3 times for it...and the charges are pretty much dropped against me.

                      And the only rule i've broke on this website is rejoining. I think anyway from my knowledge.

                      Anyways, thanks for letting me stay on the website, if you do decide to reban me then so be it.

                        BTW torbs, whenever the valves hit the piston, i dont care what car it is in, it will fuck up the pistons also. And the vlave didnt PUNCTURE the piston, the head of the valve broke off and just fucked that pisotn up more that the others. I looked at it when i was at the shop. It doesnt matter how low the compression is, but if the valves get bent, they hit the pistons, if they hit the pistons the pistons are fucked.

                            no not neccessarily...nate, the all knowing one haha, has never seen a valve ruin a piston in a DSM motor, which obviously doesnt say it can't happen but it doesn't mean that just because the valve hits the piston the piston is automatically messed up tho...

                                  i have never seen an instance where the pistons hit the valve that it did not put little nicks in the pistons frome the valves. In my opinion, i consider the pistons messed if they have little nicks in them.

                                    why that just lowers the compression, which means more boost 😉 lol
