Anyone know what might cause this kind of piston damage?

[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 15437345, member: 70025"] Don't despair to much. I actually blew the motor in my 65 Mustang. It was a 347 with aluminum heads. I added a 150 shot of Nitrous. The system fired at idle and Kaboom. I shattered three pistons, rods punched through the block and I bent 7 valves and my heads were nicked by the shrapnel. The machine shop WAS able to repair the nicks and bent valves in my aluminum heads and you can see below how much carnage there was and my heads were repairable..... So, I'm assuming, based on your pictures, that your heads "should" be repairable and they "should" be able to get those nicks out of your cylinder walls. Warning: Always make sure your system/solenoids work properly BEFORE opening your bottle of nitrous LOL......
