What is the purpose of the holes drilled in the top?
Taken from Wiseco's FAQ:
Q. What are gas ports and when should they be used?
A. Vertical gas ports are primarily used in drag race applications. Lateral gas ports are more often used in circle-track and road-race applications where carbon build up can occur. When gas ports are used, pressure is directed to build up behind the compression ring and seal it against the cylinder wall. This helps prevent ring flutter and extends the power curve upward in the RPM range. Vertical gas ports have the holes drilled from the deck of the piston into the top ring groove and behind the ring. Lateral gas ports are drilled through the bottom side of the top land and extend to the back wall of the ring groove.

The cam towers will get sand blasted and prepped properly for paint. Most likely something subtle like gunmetal or a silver.
I have enough teal. :-)

Lip is fine. Tape finally let go and front bumper still needs a good paint job. Zip tied for now. Ain't care.
I will address that after engine stuff is done.
