any one seen piston's like this?
my buddie and i decided to strip down my motor today and when we took the heads off and saw the tops of the pistons, and we havent seen any like that before. i was just wondering if they were good ones or not, also is the black stuff on top if the piston normal? he said it was but i just wanted to double check with you guys.

RE: any one seen piston's like this?
my cars a 91 but im not shure of the engine. the car was a 4cyl and the 2nd owner before me did the swap. is there any way i could tell what year the motor is by looking at the block? are these pistons stock or after market, and are they any good?
