So in the nitty gritty of my BBC build... Found a little 3/16 to maybe 1/4" nick in the bottom of one of my pistons.
It's not on the skirt, it's on the underside of the piston pin arch. Looks like a piece of the busted pushrod smacked it on the way by, when it was headed south to the oil pan.
I'll put a pic up later.
Motor wont go over 4500-5000 rpm... Leave it?
Would you use it, or blend it out? Pistons are SpeedPro hypereutectic .030 overs with the Teflon skirts.
