RE: First cylinder head finally off .... What do u think?
There's a surprising lack of carbon on the pistons tops though. It does look like detonation has occured...Is there actual material missing from that third piston from the left, or is it just an illusion?

Fair enough. To be clear, I've never torn into a car engine before...only countless motorcycle engines. If there is no material missing, I'd say those pistons look damn good...again, from the standpoint of a former bike mechanic.
