Need engine help

[05DaytonaRam]

I pulled the engine out of my corvette after a engine bay fire. I had the heads redone and cleaned everything up. I did not do anything to the bottom end though. My plan was to reuse the bottom end since the engine was rebuilt not to long ago. However when I pulled the heads I found some rust in the piston walls. The engine turns freely so my question is would it better to not worry bout the rust or rebuild the engine all the way?

How much rust? What was the time lapse between the fire and pulling the heads and finding the rust?

The car spent bout a year an half after fire before I pulled heads. Number eight is the worest spot. I'll try to post pictures up

Here are the cylinder walls

Based on your pics, I think the cylinders would clean up with honing. You have uneven carbon build up on three of your pistons.

I had noticed that too but didn't really think much about it. Guess its a rebuild now and Thanks for the help
