Sounds like perhaps you are confirming the suspicion. Best thing is after the rebuild make sure you avoid whatever the conditions and tune up that led to this. Maybe partly bad luck and some other things. Sorry for you having this but perhaps it will be the first and last time.

I've seen motors get so hot from a lean condition with detonation that they melted the cylinder head (head studs melted into the head).
