what a day!

Probably went lean and melted rather than overfuelled . Could be a blocked injector , dodgy fuel pump and wiring , poor engine set up , overboost caused by stuck wastegate , etc etc . Don't run the new engine until you know for sure as that will also melt .

cheers gaz, think it will be rebuilt and departed asafp!

Keep them standard as ford and the warranty bean counters intended and the cars are fine, start modding and prepare to have your hand in your pocket. Eddie hope you get sorted out.
