Hi all - newbie to forum
After being recovered from the M20 I have found:
Bent valve (intake) rear RH side and
rectangular hole in sump under same cylinder as bent valve, also circular impact pattern on top of piston (looks like the sort of pattern you would get if rotating piston head under valve - very odd)
Have not yet removed lower engine - (need some ale first) .
Worth rebuild or new short? Could this be related to other known block issues ?
Any thought welcome
