the short block is history - the good news - the heads will be reused - they will be redone- #7 rod and piston became little pieces in the bottom of the oil pan

I wouldn't go that far. That motor was never ment to be boosted and juiced.

You did a number on that motor.

It happens all the time under high boost. If your pistons and rods don't exit the side of the block they can usually will be found in the oil pan. John sent the piston to Davy Jones' Locker. The rod let go and you know the rest of the story.

John were you also using the nitrous when it went or is that just from pushing it with the supercharger?

build a better pressure blowoff system while your at it,
That is mostlikely what caused it to go, centrifugals hate backing off the pedal
