Nightmare mate what caused it?

[Mikethepanel]

Don't know mate!wasn't warm, timing wasn't too far advanced, still had good oil pressure.
Think its just one of those things

Sat in rapid Darrian with a 2ltr YB which used to detonate and kept blowing head gaskets. Finally melted a piston. I dont know much about this engine but I heard that some waterways in the head need to be unblocked with a drill. Seems to be a hotspot in the head that dosnt show until you drive for a while.
This is part of the reason 2ltr YBs dont give good power, but in 2.4 form their great. I guess go easy on the compression ratio for starters.
Maybe a different version of the YB has a better head you could use.
