    On the lifters I'd give Doug a call and get some advice.

        Well the question you've got to ask yourself why do you want to rev to 8000 rpm?

        Seriously you need to keep getting the solid lifters checked for clearance and shimmed if required.

        Is that extra 500 rpm needed? Do you drive up the redline and how often?

        Really do need to sit down and ask what your goal is with some of your mods.

        Do you need the dahlback cam or would a 7A exhaust cam server your needs better.

          Tis a valid point the Jamo makes here... WTF is the point of hitting 8000rpm on a K24 ? Its already well on the way to becoming a hot air blower at 6000rpm... Look at the compressor map and you'll see just how little boost you can run at full load on such lairy engine speeds.

          Come to think of it - why bother with RS2 injectors on the K24 - you can't flow enough air to justify them 1

          I guess the end goal is cool if you really plan to run with some monster turbo (like GT35/40R) which can go there so I'd forget about it on the K24. But then RS2 injectors wont take you to the full capacity of that turbo.

          Smells to me like you need to define clearly what you want to do first of all. This 8000rpm and funky cam is just a bit of noise really. IMO - the money would have been better spent elsewhere.
