I don't, we didnt touch the valvetrain unfortunately.

Yeah my shop that built my engine basically said that the chance of failure is small, and even if there is a failure the chances of a catastrophic engine failure are smaller yet, and "usually" there is a tell that something is going bad with some very ferocious ticking so there is a chance to save it before things get really bad.

Crossing my fingers for you and me!
