I haven't heard of any 918s breaking but has anyone pulled an abused set (lotsa run time with an aggressive cam) to see what kinda spring pressures the springs are keeping after abuse?

I hope this is a fliuke or something. I also broke an Isky @95 with the G5. We need a serious spring here and fast.

Is anyone using 918s with a setup that revs to 7200rpm?

They did do a great job of controlling the valvetrain while I had them though, as I never experienced any valvefloat while revving up to 7250rpm at times...
