I wouldn't re-use that piston. Well, as an ashtray maybe.

is that in a boosted setup? if it is, then thats way too much compression. check ur fuel system when u finish ur new build. make sure ur pump/regulator/inj. are good. and if u have a B&M FPR junk it

they probably will sell you one.....but take out all the pistons and have them checked/measured.......you might need a whole new set.
