Yes these were BC. i did the whole BC valve train train myself with the help of my professor who double checked all my work. The break in the valve was .049 of a break so BC said that it either hit the piston, the valve got stuck open, or from overheating. To me the break was perfect of were the valve head is welded to the stem. Either way BC replaced all the valves, the springs and retainers from that cylinder.

^^^^^^there are some that believe that breaking it in easy is bad because it doesn't fully seat the rings. I used the motoman breakin method. Check it out.
My wife "haven't you spent enough time and money on that car yet?" my answer "no"
