The only premature wear you will encounter is when valvetrain geometry is off. Doesnt matter if it was using a 1.5-1.6-1.7-1.8 rocker arm ratio. Bad geometry will wear anything out.

I am excited, but it's a double edged sword. I bought this car saying, "It's a 10 year project."


Now it's a hole in the wallet...

Oh well. You live once, you die once.
