Piston Purchase

[Wendigo]

Where is the best (cheapest) place to buy ONE stock piston for the 7MGTE?

i'm sure any one of us has at least one hanging around...
i know that i, personally have two sets...

but, then again, are we willing to let ONE go... perhaps..

and ouch. that looks like one of my friends pistons out of his 4g63... two valves were just hangin around in there. not good.....

umm toyota? their like what 45 bucks?

Is that damage from detonation?

 

[Wendigo]

Nope rear exhaust valve decided it didn't like the piston so they got into a bit of a scuffle, sadly the cylinder head (RIP) got in the way when the piston tried to kick the valve out. (valve sheared off mashing both piston and head). Off to Toyota I go. Thanks guys

Damn, I hate that for ya. Please post some pics of the head damage if you have them, I'm interested.

I have a full set of new Toyota pistons if anyone is interested.

They're 2's in stock bore size and came with my new block with pins and clips.
