Yeah, some macro shots would be nice. Check the retainer to make sure you don't see cracks or galling.

The larger VTEC lobes dont seem to have any wear at all.

You should try and have the engine on VTEC at least 50% of the time to equalize lobe wear.

To fix the problem, I suggest you immediately double the mileage of your car using VTEC 100% of the time.

I'm sorry that i can't offer an expert opinion on the mechanical condition, but it is really neat to see what's under the valve cover.

I know some people are perplexed by technology, but you don't have to point at what you're taking pictures of, just aim the camera and press the button. It takes a picture of what it's facing, not what you're pointing at.
