Default No biggie

The head is fine. Maybe 4 bent valves at the worst. We knew it was on borrowed time. We have to run stock Honda rods and the ones we chose weren't meant to run this high in rpm, but can make more power. We thought it would last at least half the season though. Oops.

We have another block bored and honed to the right size. We're just looking for a 4th piston. The carnage was pretty cool. A little hole in the front of the block, one hole in the oil pan, which was also kinda shaped like a rod, and an end cap sticking out the transmission side of the block. The cap was lonely and wanted to visit the flywheel.

The head's the important part. That has lots of $ in it. Blocks are cheap for us to throw together. The top of the piston was left in the cylinder, and protected the head from the carnage. It's just about to go though. The piston is cracked all the way through, and the skirts are gone. Basically, it's just the dome left.
