Default My ITR motor's demise & analysis *pics*

Well, i know everyone has been waiting for this. We took apart my ITR motor today and found out what happend. The valvespring retainer broke and broke one of the #4's intake valves in half. The valve stem was broken off, and it flew all the way over to #2 and got wedged in between one of #2's intake valves(see pic). The #4 cylinder has a huge hole in it, and the chunk from the hole was resting ontop of #1(see pic). The cylinder walls look decent, some minor honing and it will be good to go(i was lucky). The entire head is basically unusable anymore and i plan on selling the cams out of it('96 spec JDM ITR). And without further a-do, here's the pics:

I'm going to hone/bore it out and do SRP pistons and Eagle rods. The head im using now is an ITR head w/ Toda B's/toda valvetrain.
Should be really good once its back together.

All stock internals on the blown up ITR.
