Intake seat let go. Ended up resting at angle to valve (odd location, usually they sit flat if loose?) which ended up taking a chunk from top of piston and scuffing cam lobe from pressure created. Much work ahead of us this weekend :-(

That looks wrong in a few ways.
Valve,,, obvious Top of piston pitting, root cause? Lots of white in head, possible lean condition? Rich |
