I am an IH guy so take this as you will. A piston is a wear part, so in my opinion you can replace it with any replacement part made to fit and it would not deter from the value of the restoration. Aluminum pistons are an upgrade in technology. Lighter pistons in the end should make the engine run more economically moving around less mass takes less energy. Although if you were trying to measure that difference you would be hard pressed. I will also add you could be someone who keeps this tractor until your dying day. If not good luck finding the buyer who will pay you more for your ..restored.. tractor because it has the original stock cast iron pistons. My 2 cents and worth exactly what you are paying for it. I hope in the end your tractor turns out to be everything you hoped for and brings you much enjoyment.
