Damaged Valves or not?
#2
I don't think it would be possible for the valves to contact the pistons within the limited adjustment permitted by the adjustable gear.
It certainly would be possible for the valves to be damaged if the cam and crank were joined far out of time, or if the chain slipped somehow.
I just completed a rebuild on a 22RE that had sheared the cam to cam gear dowel and all 4 of the intake valves were bent.
