Default RB concept S7 Europa piston pitting

I just got an RB S7 europa and upon removing the heatsink head, I noticed that the top of the piston is somewhat pitted. I was just wondering if this is considered normal ware, or if I should replace the piston and sleve. Also what are some good websights where I can purchase parts for RB Concepts Parts?

If it is pitting, it can be caused by predetonation by to high of nitro content. RB's are generally set up for up to 25%, you need to add a .5mm shim to safely run 30%.
