FYI Orange ENGINE ENAMEL DOESNT WORK ON SNOWMOBILE PIPES ,, has to be high heat, header or bbq paint. |

I,ve rebuilt a lot of engines over the years,. OEM in most high perf is way to stay, Wiseco I have used in a lot of engines, never a issue when breakin is done right and engines are warmed properly before w/o running,I,v only tried SPX pistons In a couple of engines,smaller, under 80 hp, ok, over 100 hp and if run Hard, had failures. Your call,.good luck |

Looks like ring play got excessive, how where skirts? If slap where there also Would explain failure. Also looks lean , check pto seal, change seals , your a Most there anyways, good luck |

(ran lean) im replacing all gaskets, crank seals, 2- oem pistons,wrist pin bearings, 1 new cylinder, ill re build the carbs and drain the gas tank to make sure its clean, and hope for the best.. then i want to re-build my f7 sooner than later to avoid this happening again |
