Best way to repair pistons? fly cut? (in car)
Well I put some notches in my brand new pistons from ptv issues. How can I fix this problem? I've heard the marks I've made can cause hot spots/problems. Can I leave them? If not, can I just smooth out the marks or do I need to fly cut? The pistons came with valve reliefs but obviously not where I needed them. Heres the worst one:

You did that, or was it machined like that already? If not, Yes you can flycut the pistons in the car and not upset the balance of anything. www.iskycams.com sells the tool to do it.
