Default Re: federal mogul piston

Any piston is subject to failure if it hits something, is run under lean conditions or subject to detonation. If you take precautions against these issues, you should be fine.
Someday you'll build a new engine and can afford dedicated race pistons and you will go faster due to better ring seal and possibly compression. But for now, use what you have and enjoy the ride!
