chances are VERY high that you bent some valves. honda heads are interference heads which means that the piston reaches the top of the block and the valve extends below the top of the block, under normal conditions the valve is drawn back before the piston gets there but when the belt snaps the valves in at least 2 of the cilinders are partally extended Andrew
