Default Bad Day

Took the 31 roadster out for a parade and later a country drive. Everything worked great. Later I started her up to go on one more drive and half a mile from the house the throttle jammed and the engine made a bang then shut down. No compression on #2 and #1 seems low.

Hard to believe the engine blew in the time I was shifting gears with the throttle stuck.

Not looking forward to dropping the pan as I assume this is a $4K+ repair
