Parts of the seat probably hung the intake valve open and when the piston came back up it blew the pieces of the seat back up the intake and then sucked down the rest of the cylinders. My buddy dropped a valve in his Mustang and he knew something was bad when he pulled the carb and the intake was riddled with metal shavings/chunks.
