WOW, that is super bad luck - is it a common failure point on that engine?

Not sure if its common, but they call them grenades and it lived up to its reputation ! Weird thing is both rear valves in the front cylinder have been bent, one inlet and one exhaust. The front ones seem fine, not sure how this is possible!

I'm not really a fan of the Redarc boost and pyro gauge. The dials are too small So I dragged out my old VDO stuff and mounted around the gauge cluster.
Removing the Redarc means I have also lost the coolant temp, I think I'll order the Redarc oil pressure gauge and utilise the coolant temp sensor too. That'll cover most of whats going on

I love my McNally Boost and EGT gauge.
