I'm pretty sure I can knock the burrs down the strange part (read lucky) is that it didn't score up the wall.

Re: Can I still run this piston?

I pulled apart my heads to do a head swap and noticed my #8 piston looks like this. Attachment 237085
All the rest look like this. Attachment 237086
The bore looks good and I wasn't having any problems prior to removing the heads. So if I do run it will it adversely effect anything?
