[AT] Used aluminum pistons?? - NO GO!

[Dean VP]

Walt/Greg:

Thank You both. I was concerned about the wear issues. You verified my
suspicions. I haven't overhauled enough engines to be that observant but
they were suspect to me. Thanks for the help. I have decided not to buy
them.

strong enough.--John Christian Bovee

Their shot warn out beyond saving, unless you need them real bad and there 
aren't any others around then I'd pass on these. you can see the wear on the

side of the piston it looks real deep and without looking I would bet that
the 
ring grovves are worn beyond specs. These pistons have run without good
oiling 
that is obviuos.
