Hello again, The dealer advised me he would not know if the pistons were also damaged until they remove the head. He said he does not have evidence one way or the other at this point but said it was a possibility. I would appreciate your thoughts of that possibility....50/50, 90/10, 10/90, etc and comments. THANK YOU, greyn
