Did you fit brand new rings??:wtf:

If you did have you broken one whilst re-fitting the pistons in the block?

Oh dear. That sounds to be FUBAR.

If the motor is sweet - 160psi per pot.

did you do something strange with the big end shells when you put it back together?? cos 10 miles is a bit short.. or did you put std size rings into an engine with a lot of bore wear?
