Ok, tore down the Grey Ghost's engine to determine what happened on the way to Wickenburg ... images below:

I am missing something:

Oooooo, that hurts:

Tested all factors on the CIS and flow on the injectors is within 5% of each other.

Analysis: Cylinders 1 & 2 on a flat six are the poorest cooled of all. Apparently, #1 got hot and detonated (poor gas, bad timing) and broken ring lands / rings were the result.

Oh well, now in search of a good used Mahle P&C.

I will be adding a Cylinder Head Temperature Gauge to #1 cylinder to monitor temps from now on.

Thank you Ferry, where ever you are in the universe ...............
