[QUOTE="StuF, post: 574650, member: 17262"] What condition were the heads in on the side with the damaged piston? Could be a symptom of poorly lapped inlet valves or sticky guides/spring allowing fuel to flood the piston? Carbs could have caused it if they werent balanced correctly and one side was running much leaner than the other. The leaner that side the hotter it will run Any pics of engine/heads/piston? [/QUOTE]
