Default blown engine???

well i was leaving a toll booth on veterans expressway on the way home from work, i was gunning it pretty hard at 5500rpm in 2nd gear when i heard a KABOOM and the car shut off immediatly.. so i pulled over to the side and tried to start it up.. it wont crank over but it clicks tho.. my dad said it might be the timing? i just bought this car tuesday and put no more then 150 miles on it. it's a 91 civic lx with 98k

sucks tho too... i just bought octane booster, oil+fuel filters, oil, engine restorer, sparks plug today on my lunch break

anyone have an idea?

check the timing belt, if that's not the problem, check your distributor.
