Default OT - "burned" engine head

There were 2 heads at the dump, each for 2 cylinders - from a a v4
engine I'd guess. Each of the heads had 1 cylinder badly "burned", as
shown. Anybody know what happened?


Looks like a valve broke off and beat the **** out of everything
rattling around inside the cylinder. Looks like they kept it
running as long as the could after it started banging and clanking.








Just curious,
Bob
