Thats exactly how all of mine were. Don't be suprised when you pull the pan off and find a couple hitting the crank.
James maybe thats why we found metal pieces in the oil pan... 
Holy crap that's like a 1/4"!!! I wonder if there's any skirt left on that piston?
i had one piston that completely took off the skirt with two big chunks in the lower pan. I had 6 pistons and 4 rods hitting the crank. Im sure judging by the pic above hes not far off from what my bottom end was.
Can you post that pic Bryce?
Yeah im 99% sure its skirt peices in my oil pan i found and its what was causing the "tinging" sound you could hear with the oil cap off. Damn if those steel pistons didnt cost as much as my whole motor build, id buy them. And it is 3/16 of an inch from piston to block deck lol.
Yeah bryce, id like to see. Give me something to compare too

You sure put a hurting on that rod. How may did you bend?
So far, three that i know of, working on the rest now.
Yeah your tellin me! Im surprised it stayed together!
Btw, tapatalk got multi quote! AWESOME!
All the rest were no where near as bad as cyl 5. They either had a very slight bend or "looked" straight.
Oh yeah, forgot to show that both my cam and crank pins were bent

Shit! Forgot to get a pic but the one I have is pretty close to the one your rocking.
James, just throw a lbz in there and he done with it

I dont need piston problems
. I just now fixed the rod problem!
Crank has very little light marked areas (i wouldnt even call them scratches). The piston never phased it which was nice to see

That's the understatement of the year. Damn, I'll say you did. Im glad I caught mine before they got that bad.
