Need some advice with my piston swap.

I checked that compression deck out. It is the same. I am simply loosing the dish.

I would spend the extra coin on forged pistons. My future plans were to go to eddy RPM heads. IIRC forged pistons require a higher skirt to wall clearance. I was considering getting forged pistons that would give me a flat top, work with the current .040 with a rehone and give me excellent quench with the RPM heads.

Can I get pistons that would allow this?

ANd the bores on the engine right now look really good, no thrust side wear.

I a very sorry for all these questions, I got stuck with a motor that was not something of choice, and finding mag 5.9 engines down in south louisian are hard.

I really, REALLY appreciate all the help. I already got a chart with all the piston compression heights I have so far, and plan on handing that out as a refrence.

Thank you very much for all the help.
