Here's a closer look. Some carbon build up but nothing I would consider really bad. After all, the motor had just over 48,000 miles on it with 25,000 supercharged when it came out.

This is my favorite pic. You can still see the factory hone hatch. There is no discernible ridge in the cylinder. No visible deformation. No sign of head leak. Did I mention you can see the factory hone hatch? 50k miles!
