So no dropped tip? But damaged housing?
Rotors look ok in pics. Never seen a plate break up like that before?
Bitsa motor?

Looks like something like a screw was fallling in the inlet port? Really a curious fault.

apex seal chipped.. the motor was low compression before we started tuning I guess... previous build reused all factory seals but threw in aftermarket soft seals... it may even have had that damage previous to slapping it together to sell in the car to another guy (that I bought it from)

Re: 84GSLSE 13BREW Swap build
well I ran my motor down to Kevin Baltz this weekend.. what a drive.. 13.5hrs each way...
I left at 1230 friday lunch, got down there at 230am saturday, grabbed a room and slept 6 hrs, woke up showered got dressed and went to meet Kevin.. spent an hr or so hanging out discussing the engine build and other things... then got to ride in his repu.. F%^$^%g beast... then he led me out to the highway and showed the rx7 off a little... then I left towards home, stoppd for a 25min nap, then met a buddy in Kansas City for some dinner which tool 1.5hrs, then back on the road.. stopped at 3am and took a 25min nap then when the alarm went off I reset it again.. haha I was beat.. 2hrs left till home so I finished it up and got home around 5am.. slept till midday.. what a weekend.. pretty excited for my engine to be built and what it will be like..
