Craig,
I am getting 88mm flat top forged slugs with 33mm compression height from
Australian Precision engine parts. $220+GST each including sealed power
gapless rings, pins and circlips. Good price and excellent product. I
looked for VG30 pistons but had a lot of trouble sorcing them and I do not
think they will handle high CR.
Regards

Subject: Re: VG30 Piston pin height?
Eddie,
they're for an L series. I am after some 88mm flattops with about 32mm
pin height. I saw they were 87mm standard and thought they may be a good
piston if they are available in 1mm oversize at the right pin height.
I'd prefer not spending big money on custom pistons if I can avoid it. I
found some really good pictures of them at

I see what you mean about the valve reliefs. I will be machining my own
reliefs in whatever pistons I get anyway.
Thanks,
Craig.
