I had a nut go down the throat of my carb. And got sucked throught the intake manifold. I was driving down the road and engine cut off, and won't restart. I've got fire and fuel. Checked the oil and I have water in my oil. Could I have cracked the cylinder head? Any news is probably BAD news!

Having worked on many motors what probably happened is you broek the cylinder wall from the bolt going in the engine. Especially having water in teh oil. Pull the head off and you'll find out real quick. Or pull the oil pan off and you'll find a bunch of parts in the bottom of the pan. Also look along the edge of the oil pan and see if there are a bunch of bend marks or holes in pan. You probably trashed the engine.
