Trigger:
Need more photo's but, a dent ! These liners will crack before you could put a dent in one. Could of been dropped but, need a few more pictures  ;)

Bryanj:
As long as the bore is round and the corrent size i would happily use them with the dent, the liner is thick and made of decent iron so i think it would be fine.

Moorey:
Is that a crack in the aluminium by the dent or just a scratch.

matthewmosse:
I also would just get it checked for roundness, the obvious distortion is out of the running area of the piston. Probably as a crude check, try a piston in there with no rings ( just easier ) and see if it has any constrictions in movement up, down twisting etc. Use some light oil and dont force it, I reckon that would give some idea of if it's out of round. The pistons are a fairly close fit.
