WHO is dropping valves?

Okay i'm starting to put together this valve dropping idea and it's looking a lot more Supercharged related.


Is it JUST the ZL-1 guys or am i (2018 SS 1LE) susceptible to this batch of terrible?


How can i tell? - Besides "it's still initact, isn't it?"

This was discussed in past threads. I’m not sure about the correlation of supercharged cars being the issue as much as mechanical over rev. Maybe that’s where this is going.
