i know some companies use an arrow on top of their pistons. does ross do this? also, doesn't the arrow face the exhaust port with the ross pistons? this is the way it works for wiseco and je.

They sure do it's a standard for off road piston to have a arrow pointing to the exhaust side. This imfo Come from Honda Jim.:D

why is it that the honda pistons face the intake side? hence the IN on the piston.

I just installed my Ross piston yesterday. And no arrow on the top. I dont think it had any identifying mark. I had to compare the valve notches.
