No reason why you can't replace it with a used one so long as it is the same size.
Pistons usually have a size marked on them - something like 'STD' , '+10' , '+20' and so on.

When you say 'Piston head' do you mean the round thing in the cylinder bore which moves up and down ?

Ah !
It's just called a 'Piston' 
I think you may have given the impression you were after a cylinder head.

I've got Four brand-new 2.3 pistons with the sizes on the top. First pic of Middle two, then the front, then the rear. If you're interested Lee PM me and we'll come to an arrangement.
