Blown Vert spark Plugs!

Well most of you know from my other posts that i have had a sick vert for a while now. I was leaking coolent through the rotor housing. Well my baby finally blew up yesterday after putting about 10k on it with the problem. I thought you all might dig the picture of my spark plugs when i pulled them. There are actually small nics and chunks missing out of one plug. Im currious on how the inside of the rotor looks.

Not to mention, those plugs have what, less than 3K miles on them?
