88k miles, had a comp rocker nut come loose on me and let the valve hit the piston. I *might* have been able to save the motor as the piston only had a small nick in it, but I chose not to. My block is sitting in my garage awaiting a future build up after I decide to upgrade from my current 355 in several years.
Motor looked brand new inside.

Mine had 153K IIRC.



Other than extreme set ups I don't ever hear that happening.
