You pistons and rings will probably look something like the picture below.
If you or anyone HEARS what they THINK is detonation while driving normally. Don't drive the car again. You should never hear detonation inside a car without knock phones. In the years I have been tuning. I think I have heard actual detonation two, maybe three times. Being your physyical timing was that far out and your ignition timing was that far out I am sure you experienced quite a bit of pre ignition as well. Compression test and leakdown test the engine. You should have done that before making this post. If you didn't know that. Now you know. But. Most likely going to need new pistons and rings at minimum. Possibly hone, valves, bearings, etc.
