7mge rebuilding.
so a while back i got a seized 1987 7mge for 40 dollers. opened it up yesterday and it apears that the pistons were not only busted, but melting may have been the cause:
the project is going to be long, and its looking rough so far haha: has anyone here ever purchased oversized pistons before and what kind did you get and where from. im not trying to break the bank, i just dont want to buy garbage pistons.... any thoughts on these NPR's: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Toyota-Cressi...45030019959619 only 80 dollers and 70 shipping, any input would be greatly apreciated  in the future i plan on a total overhaul oversize pistons and mains/rods, cometic MLS HG, arp studs, total block and head overhaul... gonna be slow and i dont even have a car to put this in yet, maybe put in my supra until i get 1uz running...

Depending on the type of damage you've found you might want to consider getting a hardness test done on the head and block to check for annealing in suspect areas.

First thing I'm doing is getting the block and head checked. I did get it to turn. Just had rusty coolant/water on the piston.
