Just a small update. Pulled the #8 spark plug. this was the one that looked like detonation and i replaced with a new plug. It was bent and contacting the electrode. It also had scrapes on it. It appears #8 piston is coming up too high and hitting the spark plug. It should be safe to assume that the piston has contacted one or both valves, possibly damaging the head. So there is probably damage from the crank to the head on #8.

Have removed most of the performance parts to sell. All that is left are the heads. Will see if they are damaged. If not, will sell those also. Will part out the rest of the car, and when i get tired of looking at it will take it to scrap.
