Of course rocker arms are a lot cheaper than pistons. This is out of my last CA.

Too much boost, too many rpms, too much timing are tell-tell signs of what happened to that piston.

well, if you consider 0 boost and about 75rpm too much (with about 20 degrees of timing) then yea......

It did that at startup.
