The two pistons are the same bore, but have different CR. DO NOT MIX AND MATCH PISTONS. Use all the same pistons in the block.

Why not? People do it all the time to increase the compression.

Rings are standard for 81mm bores as well.

It sounds like he wants to use 3 b17 pistons and 1 B16 piston.

Oh, I see. In that case, definitely not a good idea.
