kB190 pistons, standard bore. Hasting rings, gapped for nitrous included. Never ran, used for buildup only. Ended up using a different piston.
$250 shipped to the lower 48

What compression will these be with a stock cc J head with .053 gasket? Will these be above deck with a non milled block? Thanks. Kim
 
I’ll run those numbers for you. Let me just wrap up some things at work first.

As you know, these aren't mine but, maybe this will help the seller...

Being that they have a slight dome/pop-up (0.080"), they will extend above deck. Looking at KB web page, the compression should be in the 10.5-11 area, depending on the actual cc of your J heads.

KB Automotive Hyper - Chrysler 360 / 5.9 - KB190

Compression Ratio: 62-11.8, 64-11.5, 68-10.9, 72-10.5

Using a standard LA deck height (9.600"), I come up with the following...

1/2 of the stroke = 1.79"
Rod length = 6.123"
Compression ht = 1.675"
TOTAL = 9.588"
...plus pop-up = 0.080"
Calc above deck = 0.068" (9.588 + 0.080 - 9.600)

When I run compression calculations using -1.2cc from KB description, 69cc heads, and assuming a Felpro 1000 gasket (~8.8cc), I come up with 10.75 to 1 compression. Anyway, hope that helps.
 
FWIW, you will probably have to mill the deck some in order to get the main part of the piston to a zero deck height.
