chances are VERY high that you bent some valves. honda heads are
interference heads which means that the piston reaches the top of the
block and the valve extends below the top of the block, under normal
conditions the valve is drawn back before the piston gets there but
when the belt snaps the valves in at least 2 of the cilinders are
partally extended
