Maybe this is a stupid question :stupid  but what caused this meltdown?   Pushing the edge of clearances, overreving, or just $hitty luck?

Current theory is piston to valve clearance got screwed up.  That broke the head of the intake valve off and then it proceded to destroy the piston....


.... and shitty luck...  :D
