One thing to note it that the engine pictured was an expereimental race engine, if it lasts through the race thats good enough for them. What I find interesting though is it wasn't a plastic part that failed.

Wouldn't that be the way, though...
LOL.
My suggestion comes from casting the cylinder heads in plastic, also, and bonding that plastic to the metal "caps" which form the combustion chambers in the cylinder head.
Of course, I have no clue who to send a suggestion like that to.
