I don't think that's normal at all. What gets me is the fact that the scars in the cylinder wall go all the way to the deck...the scars on the piston skirt wouldn't have caused that. Looks almost like a ring was broke or bent when the piston was installed. Either that or you got some serious debris in the engine....was your oil clean? Did all the pistons have their spirolox intact?
