Thanks for the reply Daniel.

Do you have any pics of the pistons after they were machined? I plan to do this with a hand die grinder. Nothing fancy, just want to get the car running again quickly for a European style [wheel to wheel] rallycross coming up September 10th. I don't have time to rebuild a motor from scratch.
