Re: Right Piston? (a69nova)
Call JE, Weisco, or some of the other piston manufacturers. Most will make just about anything you want at not much more than their production offerings.
A flat-top should work with closed chamber heads and give about 9:1 compression. Weisco offers high comp pistons that fit both open and closed heads also. Check the piston listings at http://www.flatlanderracing.com, they have quite a few offerings listed. What size motor (bore and stroke)?

Re: Right Piston? (GregP)
Greg the motor I'am building is a 060 over 427 forged bottom end with the weisco pistons I decided to go with. The salesman told be if i decked my block to a 9.775 and used a 038 gasket I will be at 11.5 comp. I can live with that. My heads have noticeable intake port work, and I'm debating on going with bigger valves. 2.19 1.88 or 2.25 1.88. I want to get these heads breathing the most they can. Right now they have 2.06 1.72. What are my chances of getting these heads flowing good?
