bent valves

well i have a question i have never heard of this have the 96 sho the left head intake cam spun and bent the intake valves. so i decided to remove the right head just to make sure the cylinders was clean and no trash inside. well the head had 4 bent valves the front 2 and the back 2 cylinders. could spinng that one cam on the other head cause this or what? i had cams welded and i looked at that intake cam and it looks right

While it's rare, we have seen cam failures in both heads on the same motor. Typically, on the front head it's the intake cam sprocket that spins, and on the rear head it's the exhaust cam sprocket.

If you haven't already shipped your front intake cam to us, I'd suggest at this point putting them all in the mail so we can check them all over and get them squared away for you.
