Do they have a front or back, look the same both ways, Thanks for any info.

If they have no valve recesses I don't think it matters if they are new. If used best to mark them to put back in the same place .

My bike has pistons Hepolite originally fitted to a 1956 Model 88 (They wore out the original bores but were almost entirely without wear on the pistons, some light scoring on the skirts). They definitely have a front and back, they are stamped to say so. The inlet valve pockets are bigger.
