R.i.p. B16a
so a friend of mine and i were heading up to brooksville...I was getting on her quite a bit. shifted from 3rd to 4th (but didn't get it all the way into gear) let the clutch out floored it and this was the end result. I'm picking up an LS and plan on getting a B16 or a GSR head and doing a LS/VTEC. just figured i would share my bad luck with everyone.
here's the block and pistons
here's the head...or what's left of it

Sorry to hear about your loss man.
It sux, but it also gives you reason to go bigger.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

no rev limiter...definitly will have one on next engine. yes, it does give me a reason to go bigger. i have no idea what RPM it hit since my tach doesn't have memory. it had about 20,000 on it since last rebuild. there goes a set of 11.5:1 pistons. i guess you can say, i revved her til she popped.
