Always thought lash caps protect your valve tips?
Found 5 (No 1-2-3-4-5) intake valve tips damaged under lash caps.
Tops of all caps are fine and also all rockers.
Looks like the valve tip was too soft and now there is like a pin on the same place as the small hole that's in the lash cap.
Engine is about 7000 miles street driven. Gen 2 hemi with StageV heads and solid roller efi cam. Wide pad rockers and "street springs".
What the xxx happened?
No 6-7-8 are fine.
