damn your valve keepers are fail too?! I had to make sure when building my motor that I had gotten the correct PRB 02-03.5 K series valve keepers to avoid the fail Brian Crower came across with his stage 2 cams back in '05 when using '05 valve keepers. 60 miles + dropping a valve = FAIL!

sounds good. if you look in the forced induction classifieds there is usually a new set of VR rods or pistons for sale for a good price.

oem VW keepers are dual groove, they usually hold well. exhaust valves on the 1.8ts are known to break. i got extremely lucky because if a valve dropped, good bye EVERYTHING. people have even had Supertech single groover keeper failures. when it comes time to do valvetrain, Ferrera all the way, i dont care if they are 35 a valve instead of 20. its worth it to me.

I passed up a pretty good deal on Ferrera valves but didn’t know too much about them at the time. I got Supertech valves w/ Supertech valve seats and OEM PRB 02-03.5 valve keepers. Seems to be good stuff, when I was doing everything I heard a lot of good things about Supertech so I just went with them.

supertech valve train is awesome. just some a couple 1.8t guys have had issues, now whether it was installation error or not, i dont know. but for the money, ill take Ferrera.

-install error could be a spring/retainer that isnt seated properly when the lock is installed which will cause the spring to have a terrible side load on it, eventually it could come free. my head is going to be thoroughly inspected prior to install. too much money to throw it all away from a easily avoided valve lock seating error. a built 1.8t head is in the neighborhood of 3000$ for a hydro lifter, 4-5grand for solid lifters.
