Thanks for the reply. I havent had it honed, I have however used emory cloth and light oil since I took the photos. It seems to have helped but i worry about taking to much material off. To be honest i don’t know exactly what pitting will look like but I have to think what I see is pitting. I plan to remove the piston and rings again this evening and I can measure ring gap then. The rings I used are the standard sized rings, OMC part number 383920. But these rings had flat ends not the L-shaped which was stock. I’m starting to think that because of the different ends that I may not have received the correct rings.
