I haven't seen a piston damaged from an insert but using inserts can cause the tip of the spark plugs to melt and burn off. Reason being the heat isn't pulled away to the head casting well enough as the heat now has two contact points to pass through, not just one plus if the insert isn't put in correctly the plug will be tight before the taper seals. The taper is where a lot of the heat passes to the head. The later heads have more threads in them.
