Is something up at Scat?

Then you have to buy custom made pistons.

The beauty of the 4.00" stroke crankshaft is you can get 3-4 different dished choices, flat top, or domed pistons off the shelf and they are readily available.

Using the KISS Method is good for the bank account and it always allows for ease of replacement parts should they be needed.
