I had a lot of fun, but if I knew that the enguine was going to blow up I go dont do it the same way... I will build the enguine first.

You probably damaged heads, definitely the valves, and possibly the crank. Heads might be salvageable but I'm sure there are some nicks etc. We would really have to tear it apart.
The bottom line is that these engines are not easy to build "right" and it's doomed to fail again unless it's blueprinted correctly and modifications are made to the oiling system. Just stuffing stronger parts in, is not enough, and I know this first hand along with many.
Also we don't buy OEM shortblocks, we buy bare cases, cranks, etc so it will cost less and we don't waste money tossing out the pistons and rods. The cranks are pricey for the FA though.
It's the cost of going fast and being one of the first I guess
Give us a call or email and we would be happy to discuss.
Thanks,
