Maybe sell them and get the new ones after the block bore cleans up. It would be a waste of money if it doesn't clean up to buy them first.

the Pistons I have are already in my possession. Part of a trade I wish I had not done but needed the $ at the time. If I can't use them I can't use them. Just trying to figure out if I can and if it's worth it because of the bore and what would need to be done to get the right compression in the motor.
