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

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!

Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.

the piston at TDC or near so the rod is straight down to the crank that would serious force to bow a rod like thatbring it http://athomasmr23.mybrute.comComment

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.
