You did say you put the NOS to it.

That will beat a set of rings up and put some stress on the bearings.
If your going to spray your going to pay.
Stock cast pistons are not up to spray on a regular habit.
A sonic check will give you a good map and you can get a pretty good idea
of how much wall you have by measuring the distance between the bores and subtracting
half that from the bore spacing which is 4.63 inchs-the bore.
ie: 4.63-4.160=0.47/2=0.235-0.125(which is half the distance between the bores roughly)=0.110".
You will have to gauge your block to find the exact distance between the bores.
It's call a drill bit test.
Bottom line I sprayed a 40 over 428 block until I end up with what you have.
Busted pistons, broke ass rings and wallowed out bearings.
I plan on doing that to a 427 Genesis too.

Hope you you get it back running.
