It looks like I posted the blowed up xr6. It should be 2b020742.
Pulled starboard side head and cylinder 5 needs a sleeve. Gonna find one and replace it along with new piston. Thanks.

Check the block below the sleeve (4pm to 8pm position) for a coolant passage down behind the sleeve. I've seen one where the casting slag wasn't removed and substantially restricted coolant delivery to the STB bank.

Where in the cylinder (and on the piston) was the worst damage?
If it appears it may have originated at the exhaust port, there's a high probability that it was temperature related (hot OR COLD cylinder).

Looking at it from back side of engine the worst is about 4 to 5 o’clock. It was caught quicky. It won’t be perfect but I can probably get a summer out of it then possibly start looking for a newer outboard. Thanks

Looking at the reed block I’m pretty sure the reeds are supposed to set flat? If held up to the light, I can see light through a lot of of them. I’m assuming they need replacing? Thanks

Up to .020" gap is fine.
So you're on the RIGHT (starboard) side, bottom cylinder, at the 4-5pm position?

so you honed it while not disassembled or torn down completely?

Yeah.

strip that motor for proper cleaning, you have a lot of very small particles embedded from the hone still in there, requires a hot tank and hot pressure washing to remove them. those particles will wear the motor out in very short order. I had a youngster argue this point with me a few years ago and refuse to do this. 30 days later cylinder wall had .025 wear in the bores and crank was ruined
Thank You Leon Pugh
+100!!! Far too many times this turns a perfect candidate for a proper rebuild into a scrap-heap, and the second time around you might end up with a whirling rotating component that decided "it wants to be OUTSIDE".
