See my other thread - high throttle miss.

I bought these new from Jegs. Apparently these were manufactured right around the time AFR switched spring manufacturers. AFR thinks I may have gotten a set that wasn't heat treated. We went over the geometry of the rockers and cam but didn't find anything amiss. I had two springs fail within 500 miles causing valve float and a high speed miss. I'm hoping it didn't do more damage - will see when the heads go to the machine shop.
