That is a front-bank piston that went?

I had two of the front-bank pistons crack in the ring area, this is a different problem. The hole piston let go, so I don't know all the data on this.
It is interesting as Buckshot had two front-bank pistons go just like mine, and one of the Streetflight engine also had the middle front-bank piston crack a ring land just like mine. All the pistons that seem to be going for whatever reason are on the front bank.
I don't know what is causing that but I'd sure like to find out. That is just too big of a coincidence for me to accept.
