I doubt you had a piston problem due to RPM, Eric. There are lots of people  
that rev MG engines much higher than you do without incident.  I'd look to  
something else.  Were you getting detonation?  I'd worry about timing  and 
mixture.

One of  my lovely, flat-top JE pistons has suffered a fatal injury,   
presumably from its broken top ring.  I guess the thing did not  like  
being over-revved and now has a hole in its  side.
