    there's nothing wrong with soaking your pistons in oil when ur building an engine, how else do you think you get the rings and wrist pins oiled? All that will happen is any oil thats on the compression side of the rings will burn and the oil thats on the oil ring side with go to the oil pan. Your supposed to lube it all or your going to have metal on metal.
