Advice kn what to do.
Well I got my cylinder Head off tonight. There's a nice hole in my cylinder 3 piston and the valves and head in that cylinder are trashed too. It also looks like some chunks of metal went out the exhaust since there are some small nicks in the exhaust wheel of my turbo. There was also quite a bit of oil and metal shavings In the intake manifold
when I got the valve cover off I found both the rocker arms for the cyl3 exhaust valves just laying in the bottom of the head. I'm assuming that was what caused the meltdown but have no idea what actually happened.
Now I've never debt with something like this before and would like a little advice on what I should do to get this thing going again. So it's looking like I need a piston, valves for cyl3, a new head and the headwork and whatever else the headshop finds, maybe a new turbine wheel for the turbo? maybe an oil pump since the was quite a bit of metal shavings In the engine? Does that sound like a good start? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Oh here's a couple pictures of the carnage too.
