hehe, I have pics of my 2.8L with a crapped out piston, I used a chunk of it as a keychain for awhile [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Only I did mine with out nitrous :( .

[94-3.4]

I tore it down to the heads tonight. Everything looks good up top and there was absolutly no metal in the oil. Kinda weird. Wednesday i should have it down to the block. I will try to take some pics as well.

I honestly don't think it dropped below 2500 when i shifted but i wasn't lookin that much.

Im curious to find out what happenened now, if its not the piston what was it? *suspense*

[3.4 slow to go]

broken rod bolts/wrist pin?

[94-3.4]

I pulled the heads off tonight. There is a chunk about a quarter size of the piston gone. Didn't look like it did any damage to the cylinder but the head had little spots on it that look like little spot welds. I was thinking maybe the piece that broke off disintigrated and the pieces welded themselves to the head. I will try and have a pic up soon.

94-3.4,

I'm sorry to hear about your engine. If I understand your statement correctly you're shooting nitrous at 2500 RPM. Just a little advice, you should never use nitrous below 3000 RPM.
