Yep and Magnetic.B B B  Good question about the butterflies and the screws..
Although the steel that we seen at his house and the other small piece that I
found; look to be stamped and have an edge on them. AL fitz and a few others
have seen the v6 break up and throw rings up into the cyl, So maybe my last
thought wasnbt so bad.. Wont really know until I rib the block down and
see.

I pulled a piece out that was about 7mm long and the original pieces were
larger. There is no damage to the valve seat side of the valve so it didnbt
come in that way.


Is this Greg's engine? If not were the pieces steel or nonmagnetic? Wonder if
the butterflies on the IMRC have all the screws still attached?
