But, clearly something took out the apex seals on #1, no question about that when one of them is in three pieces.  Its beginning to look less likely that the spark plugs were responsible - just a coincident on the timing.

Ed is it possible detonation caused this? If I understand correctly you had the wrong plugs installed, perhaps a heat range issue with the plugs. Actually this would then be preignition.                         Tim Andres
