After replacing a valve a few months prior, the engine died while driving along a very windy road, causing a lost of power steering and the truck going into a ditch. Once the right head was removed, it was obvious that the piston had cracked apart and has caused severe damage. Only answers I can get from every mechanic I talked to is to replace the entire engine.
