I heard from Ross and this is fine.
I replaced one fairly pitted piston with an NOS. I had some trouble getting the pin in. The manual says that about a 100F difference is required for a slip fit. This is true, but the metals quickly heat each other and match temperature. Ended up having to tap it in some while it was still cold. Edit: To clarify, I used dry ice to cool the pin, instead of boiling the piston. Anyway, lubed the bushing and it should be good now.
