i have been running crower 62403 with valvetrain for about 2 and a half years with no problems. when i had hondata we proved the valvetrain good for at least 9k rpm (advertised for 10k).
if you are all motor i really wouldn't suggest anything larger than that.
if you are thinking f/i, then they have since made a 'turbo grind' with shorter duration and greater lift

Trust me, you do not need an aftermarket valvetrain for crane stage 2's (0012s).

I ran myne for a while w/ a 75 shot in my b18b & never had a problem.

Buy some crane 0012s for $375. Install them with camgears & tuning or without camgears & no tuning, its really your choice. Ither way you are going to see performance out of them, w/ tuning you will achieve your max whp via tuning the cams/fuel/timing etc, but then you run into the issue of needing a safc to really max out your motors potential etc.
