Re: 73 harley golf cart low compression need help
Pistons are so cheap for this engine IMHO it would be unwise to use a less than perfect piston. That one belongs in the scrap pile. Just make sure you get the right size rings and piston. How does the cylinder look?

I have no idea what OEM sizes are but a car parts store won't have them. Those should be available at pretty much any golf cart parts shop. There are a ton of vendors on line that you can search for.

Vintagegolfcartparts has the pistons from STD to .050 overbore. BUT you do need to be pretty exact with your fit.
