![]() Damn Mike, that's nuts! Or screwy?
Glad I put a little locktight on if I ever pull the plate, but still, wouldn't help with the snapped shaft...

![]() If you don't mind spending ~$200, that head could be fixed if it's just the chamber that's beat up.
I wouldn't even tough the roof of the chambers, just clean up the quench pads. A little welding and some die grinder action, and a then get the head surfaced. I've fixed much worse damage than that.

![]() Reminds me of when I re-installed a IC pipe and a piece of one of those little clips that hold the hose pipes in place broke off and got sucked into a combustion chamber. Same damage. I had the head welded to fill the damage and surfaced and threw a new piston in that hole.
