Hey I bounced a couple off the top of some pistons once. Not cool.

Are you talking about valve float?

I thought maybe I had, but the doc gave me a treadmill test and siad all was cool.

Or did you mean in the car?

At a guess, mawraum, I think he means the preliminary effect to actual float.. but he'll have to specify in a repost.

If you are talking about valve float and a 3.2 the fix would be to either not rev the thing so high (that's why the factory set the redline where they did) or get stronger springs and lighter valvetrain components.
