Wow Vet, that was a long one. I am not doughting you or your experience one bit, but I have ran the cheap stuff for years and no problems at all from it. Back in the 60's and 70's we ran regular in them then. I have worked these old gals hard too. As of right now one M was overhauled in 90, one in 94 and both the C and SC in 96 or 97. I have worked all 4 of them a bunch and no problems at all yet. None of them have any blow by or smoke out the top. I do have to add oil to dads old M because of a leaking rear seal. He let it sit fot 6 or 7 years before giving it to me. The other 3 are good to go between oil changes. Now you may have something about those new pistons I don't know as I keep reusing my old ones. I have 3 or 4 sets of new ones sitting in the box in the shop that came with the new sleeves. I am not using them as much as I once did, but I imagine I will keep burning the cheap stuff in them.
