Are your VVEL actuators new or used ? If they are used, how many miles on them if you know. Thanks

He has been trying to get the VQ35HR heads on his 3.7L block since then. I personally believe that occasional 8000 rpm revving is fine with the VVEL head, but how long can it be safely sustained is questionable.
What exactly is failing on them -- we can look at making upgraded parts? I have the VVEL control already mapped out and working on my custom MoTeC firmware I'm developing for our car. Just kind of lazy about wiring that ECU as I am just enjoying driving the car right now.

Not sure, since they are used any mileage claim I take with a grain of salt. They are in working order and nothing odd about them.
