Do these b16 pistons look like they can be reused in a new block? http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/wetoddim...zMXk1NDE%3D.jpg...

Take a wire brush to them, it will get some of the carbon off. As long as they aren't physically messed up...cracked, chipped, etc...they should be fine.

without seeing the whole piston and how much wear is on the skirts, i couldnt really telly ou anything, the tops of the pistons look fine. best way i found to clean them, is stick them in a bucket with some paint thinner, takes all that crap right off.
