Merry Christmas Foxxie
All the best to you and yours, from this old member...
And yes, I'll be spending the time (after the pressies) out in the garage, building 😉

Thankfully the con rod matches the other seven that do not appear to be damaged

However, I'm not going to be able to use two of those pistons, as two are 10g lighter than the rest, so balancing the others would be tricky for me

I'm hoping that I can clean up the the two least affected pistons involved in the engine failure

I was really lucky that the affected piston didn't break up completely when the small end failed, that would have destroyed the head, and they are virtually unobtainium
