          Looks fine. Take off sharp edges and run it. Nice ping marks in the pistons, too. Better fix that...

              Ya might as well throw a ported head on there!!!

              Sucks that you broke the timing belt I allways replace the timing belt when I buy a m20!

              Lesson learned.

              And if it was me I would clean all carbon off of those pistons!

                          Throw on a new head and hope that you didn't bend a rod.

                              m20's don't have rods.

                                                      the piston at TDC or near so the rod is straight down to the crank that would serious force to bow a rod like that

                                                          rotate the bottem end a few times (by hand or starter) to make sure all is well down there

                                                          clean the pistons, slap on a good used head, get NEW head bolts, tb, wp, etc.
