1000 miles in, have a look at these pistons please
Ok as title says, I've done about 1000 miles since the map and I've had to take the head off.*
No running issues or anything like that, I over tightened the oil pressure switch and cracked the block. School boy error I know.
So I'm taking apart to get welded up.*
Anyway, here are the pistons in the exact state they were when head came off. No wiping or cleaning.*
What do you think, *about right, *bad, not*ideal, very good??
Pic of valves too

Yea id say it was running a bit rich, some brake parts cleaner should take that off.

Looks like a car that runs on gasoline to me.
WD40/brake clean the tops if you want, but I wouldn't even bother.

Thanks everyone.
Yeah it runs on shell vpower.
As I said, no apparent running issues. Just had to whip the head off to sort this crack out on back of block.
Thanks for the input
