ok. that might not buff out. i hate to break it to you. are the scratches in the combustion chamber of the head deep enough that porting won't remove them?

Supprisingly the cylinder wall is fine. I didnt really look closely at the head.

I think the valve let get and boom.

JB Weld + duct tape = no problem

jsut jb that little "crack in the piston and duct tape teh head back onto the valve. no worries. keep it below 7k rpm just to be safe though.

lol

Duct tape. I know some people who hold their cars together with that stuff.
