Re: Detnoation Problems
That looks like more than bearing material that came apart 
There a swirling carbon tracking on top of one piston.
Look at this

also the cooling passages were not well cleaned before assembly, I am not sure if this matters in this situation.....
motro never got hot, timming was checked several times, a merc tech was with me when it went, and it only made noise for MAYBE 15 seconds before we got it shut down. The oil was not burnt (it only had about an hour on it). Since I have had problems the tech and I both were hyper sensitive to possible problems.....

Rereading your post I got ahead of myself.... What GM crate motor is it? The CR? a rebuilt engine?
Also the cylinder walls looks dark in one pick

Re: Detnoation Problems
Dean have you established whether these blocks have the correct bypass valve insatlled for marine use?
If they dont have the correct 30psi valve or have them plugged, most of your oil will bypass the filter and cooler through the block
