They've only taken off the valve cover and the cams
Not sure if you can tell from the pics, but here they are

By the looks of it you have a socket extension in it. I dont think that should be there.

I agree the socket looks suspicious

I can't see anything wrong with your engine...except it's missing 2 cams....that's about it.

Looks like every single intake valve is getting ready to drop. Looks like the second intake valve of cylinder #1 has dropped.

^^ Yea, the second valve on the intake side is missing, and the retainers look like they've been hammered. OUCH!

What happened?

^^ you're both right
Yeah, I guess it's hard to tell from that angle, but almost EVERY valve is about to drop. I guess only one actually dropped. The rest are not even in height whatsoever.
This is RSXelrate, just with a new screen name, so if you've visited my other thread you should know what happened.
I should know by tomorrow if there was damage to the block. Supposedly some company locally can remanufacture the head for pretty cheap, or I have a rebuilt head locally for $1500
