Engine update con't

Talked to Jim yesterday, the reason I was losing power was 6 bent intake valves.  This would reduce compression which would cut down on power.  The cause of the bent valves happens when I would miss a shift and over rev the engine.  The valve starts to float and hits the piston.  I think it's time to get a rev limiter or stop missing shifts.  Otherwise the rest of the engine looks good.
