Mine don't have valve reliefs they are just flat topped is that ok? or was i screwed over?

 

here is a pic of the piston

 

heheeh.that looks funny
NOTE: I HAVE NO IDEA IF THAT IS RIGHT OR WRONG.i was just stating my opinion

 

lol thanks for the help NOT!

 

Without a doubt that piston doesnt look right,almost looks unfinished but it should be no problem for a machine shop to fly cut the valve reliefs into them if the rest of the piston is within specs for a D16Z......what compression are they suppose to be?

Why don't you call JG and ask them? Once you have a machine shop do anything, there's no money back if indeed, they did screw up...

 

What comp did your motor have stock? If it's higher than 9:1 and has valve reliefs, maybe these don't have them because they sit lower and don't need them? Or maybe I'm just talking out of my ***...

 

Mine don't look like that. I have 9:1 JEs, but they are slightly dished and have valve reliefs.

I'll try to take a pic when I get home if you need it. They are already in the block so I can only take the pic from the top.
