I think you should choose a manufacturer (probe, diamond, etc), call them and give them the size of the cylinder head combustion chamber, cam specs, power adder (if any) so that they can help you determine which pistons to use to achieve your desired Compression ratio

i actually spoke to probe like an hour ago and they suggested a set up for me for $1400 not bad but then i was thinking since i have to take it to a mchine shop and get it assembled and balanced its gonna cost me another 1000 so im actually thinking to going with their 331 or 393 short block
