I have a 97 accord Lx non-vtec. From time to time I have red lined and I was wondering how bad and what parts are involved in it. I mean is it that there is no oil at that rpm or that the internals on the engine are too week or can’t handle it. I know people change the valve and springs and that allows then to go farther on the rmp but is it only valve and springs or do u also need to do the piston and piston rings?

Any comments would be appreciated,
Edy
