It'd be nice if it went through at least one complete cycle, but cool nonetheless.

no,it's a time consuming process that no oem takes the time to perform.buy an indexing kit and set an afternoon aside.

That's what I was thinking. Probably the same type they use to film bullets in mid flight.

those aren't inline valves. Most of the Small block ford V8 have inline valve heads. not sure about the BBFs though.

you can see the flame front burning under the intake valve,facing the electrode towards the intake aids complete combustion.flame propagation 101.....point the fire at the fuel.in the video that intake charge is acually shielded from the spark by the back side of the electrode.
