Default ?FastBurn Head w/ Dished Piston?

Looking at combining GM Aluminum FastBurn Vortec head pn 12464298 with dished piston. Does anyone have info on such a combo ... for instance ... pn 12464298 heads on HT383 motor pn 12497317? BTW GMPP specs say these heads are designed for flat tops.

I put a set of Aluminum fast burns on a 71 and it had 4 valve relief dish pistions in it. It really woke up the car but it really needed a set of 2 valve relief flat tops to get the full potential of the motor. Thad
