As someone who works with parts that depend highly on different levels of shot peening (valve springs) I'll tell you this. It's more beneficial then you think. Shot peening doesn't stress relieve. It induces benificial compressive residual stress into the part. By having this compressive...

Thanks. The ohio supra owners are a great group of guys but I'm looking forward to meeting and hanging out with you guys too.

Please switch from the champion plugs. I've personally seen 3 motors destroyed from them coming apart.
