Pulled motor to replace blown head gasket

Well, I just pulled my head off and found my motor is blown! Not only was the head gasket blown, it burned a groove between cylinder one and two. New sled next year (-:

Yeah why not pop in a new motor or rebuild the one you have? Or do you want something different for next year

I don't think the block can be repaired? On the top of cylinder two and three the heat from the over-boost burned a grove on the top of the block between the cylinders. I may consider a used motor, but I may also part the sled out and get something different, like the SR-Viper maybe...... I will take a pic of my motor damage and post it later today.

Shitty deal! How many miles did you get on it before the issue?
