Bent Valves, Pistons OK?

[poweredbyBOOST]

I had bent my intake valves and they put dents in piston top, Is piston fine to use?

personally i wouldnt use them , i threw in 2g pistons on my 6bolt swap/ rebuild engine because i didnt want to have to worry about them.. I mean you can still run them but if anything happens ( which most likely wouldnt if your stock at least ) just dont be surprised. wouldnt be a good idea if your trying to modify your engine and boost over stock and etc.

just buff the top of the pistons so you can't see the groves where the valve hit. If not you can creat hotspots on the pistons which will eventually melt the piston. Hope this helps
