    3400 Forged Pistons - Does this looks bad...

    Just bought these from some guy on v6z24 and I'm wondering if I will have any issue running them ?





    They looks brand new otherwise.

    What does the second picture show its a little blurry? The other damage isn't ideal but it should be ok. Just smooth out any high spots.

      The second pic does sucks. Its the edge that is a little beat up. It kinda show in the pic.

        If your going NA I would use it, but for boost I would not put a piston like that because I would be the weakest point in your build....

          Is all the damage on the same piston? Is it shiping damage?

            It's for boost. It's not shipping damage, they are used.

            Apparently I can get that fixed in a machine shop for around 30-40$

              You can weld it up and machine it smooth. But the damage is only on the skirt. If you file it out a low spot is not going to hurt anything.
