Those CAS plates are nice. I expect those CAS plates are best for use during tuning and car shows. I wouldn't drive on the street like that unless you are prepared to watch the headwork go up in smoke when a rock cuts the timing belt.

Anyone heard of this actually happening? Seems logical?

I have a similar setup on mine, but I'm o-ringed and running solid lifters @ 9.25mm lift.
Mine also still needs a decent tune by someone who doesn't make excuses.

Maybe one day I'll get the time... In the meantime..at least I haven't sold out.
