The pistons are a scored at the bottom but other wise are reasonable. The piston rings are worn evenly but show average ware. The connecting rods are the same story. Good but not great. The layer of lead normally present a fresh/well maintained bearings was worn through in a few spots but not through the copper layer. The pistons are press fit and will be replaced. The connecting rods are known to be strong 500+ Hp and will be reused. Not bad for a $50 engine.
