Default b16a 84+mm bore guys, where are you getting your pistons from?

Just need to know where you guys are getting your pistons from? and how do you know what compression ratio you're running? Does anyone sell off the shelf pistons this big? or would I have to special order a set from JE?

The reason for me asking, I'm planning to send my block out to Golden Eagle to get my block sleeved, bored to 84.5mm (or more), and honed.

You can use b20 pistons with a 10.5:1 comp and it will end up being around 9.3:1 comp as long as you use the b16a head. That is what I am having done.

My b16 is 84mm with JE pistons 9:1, Cometic HP headgasket 0.036mm. Make sure you send pistons with your block to get them sleeves.

Hmm...thats the first time I heard that......So its a little over a one point drop in compression. Can anyone verify that B20 pistons work?
