Default Burnt valve
That's a nice burnt valve.:o

Just curious what size shot were you running when that happened? I experimented with a 100 shot on my Y8 with the Zex kit for a while and ended up blowing a headgasket and melting a plug, nothing serious luckily.

Default Zex Plugs
Yeah, I don't like the Zex plugs either. They made my car misfire BAD. It seems to me there had to have been more to your problem than the plugs though.
