Root cause = heat. Heat makes the piston rings expand, which is normal *until* they close thier gap all the way, after that the piston ring ends overlap .. the cylinder block and liner is stronger than the piston walls so the force of the overlapping rings is then directed onto the position wall, that cracks a chunk off the piston and proceeds to grenade. THIS example is weird in that no NOS was involved and the damage is quite minor.. (this is super common on non-preped engines running to much NOS, or not cooling enough), . But in my head this is totally rings overlapping and bending the piston crown upward and fracturing stuff.

That is significantly lower than E85......

Yes, pump E85 can be anywhere from E51-E83.

Negative. It can say E85 but it has to be at least E51 or similar depending on the state. Arizona recently put out that all E85 pumps are now E55. But they are still labeled as E85 and will continue to do so. That is why it is necessary for the testing kit because the E% varies all the time.
