You read it right Henry. I was doing about 60 mph in second gear and somehow hit first rather than third resulting in poor leak down numbers on three cylinders. Someone said I hit a 10,000 rpm turn. It was only a hot second before I bumped it out of gear, but the damage was done. Upon inspection, all six exhaust valves had made contact with the pistons. Sounds like I might want to split the case and change out or at least inspect the rod bolts?

If there's no real benefit to the 964 cams, I'll stick with my stock cams. I figure that'll save me about $500 that I can put elsewhere if inspection shows something is needed.

Thanks for your input sir. Always appreciated.
