so go going on experiance, if there has been good contact with a piston it would be a good idea to replace atleast that piston?
well the 2 cars that ive fixed that had bent valves are as far as im aware are still on the road but then there pistons in thos engines did not have the damage this one had
i would say if the rings are pinched then yes the piston would need to be changed

didnt u say that the complete head was good on that engine aswell?
yes the head is in tip top condition it would have to pass the evo inspection 1st ive not had a good look at the cam side yet but the cylinder side and the valves are all fine
more work on the new coupe
the rear discs looked shagged
set about changing them for my old ones that had only done 2k miles and a fresh set of pads
got to the passenger side and the rubber dust cover on the caliper was split piston was also a bit stiff
soon sorted that with a spare 🙂
all done 🙂
4mm step lol
