I burried my speedo and I am guessing that I was doing
about 140ish the needle was strait down

feels like its time to finaly replace those nice OEM valve
springs with some better ones do you know if I can swap
some heavyer duity ones out of another honda/acura
engine??
thanks much

well the y8 head has a better intake manifold and a smaller combustion chamber yeilding a higher compression that will help you. and the trannys dont need to be changed. but thats the head swap from a si to a later modle(96) and up ex.

You should not have valve float from one 140mph trip also if you havent touched the governor or ecu your car cuts out at 120??? If you must though swap a 96+ head as eg stated above or just get some new valve springs from honda for the 96+.
