Sorry to hear Tim... . However, I got faith in you that you will be on the water soon.. The boat is named "quick change" for a reason..

I've installed several sets of afr heads out of the box. I'd keep looking Tim or verify the clearance. If it was a blower motor on edge maybe but n/a it would've had to been wide open for the entire time it has run so far

Sorry to hear about the head, I know you'll figure it out and be back on the water soon.

Nothing else makes since besides guides cold water, hot valve....

I am hoping I find out a guy at afr had a bad day and they take care of me, I am stumped as to why this happened besides guide is tight so I gotta get things measured tomorrow....

Hope I can get resolved and help because I am out of cash....

How much run time on the engine before this happened? Really sucks.

looking at the picture ,,the oil looks milky to me and looking at the cylinder head something was going on with the cylinder next to it..

Been on Phone with Bob M we are looking Into cause and said he will do whatever he can to help me out and have a good outcome for both of us.

Condensation in valley with 55 degree water is not uncommon, oil on dipstick looks perfect..

The other cylinders injected crap when it flew up intake port into plenum sucked into other cylinders

Is this the same motor that blew up? Sounds like something was wrong from the get go either way sorry to hear that I hope you get it resolved soon. Sucks having these problems especially when you just dumped a bunch of money on a new build.
