This is out of a 350 small block chevy...
Cylinder still looks ok.
Will need some attention before it goes back together though.
What could cause this?

The car started to make a knocking noise when it shifted to second. So to try to keep if from flying apart it coasted to a 9.04 in the 1/8th. I don't think this motor has 1000 miles on it. There are a couple other questionable pistons but other than that everything else seems new. This was in my buddies car when he got it and it has never been sprayed that we know of. Opinions???

maybe it leaked water into the cylinder through a cracked head or blown head gasket then knocked the water solidTravis wrote:The car started to make a knocking noise when it shifted to second.
