Default Which CP pistons for my car?

I have a d16y7 and am hoping to get CP pistons, but when looking at their parts list, they only make them for the d16a6 and z6, would either of those work with my y7 block? Thanks,

Pfieff

Looks like I'll pick up the ones they make for the z6 because of the 9:1 CR unless anyone can steer me in another direction

I will ask CP as to how those pistons will work with your motor as far as the compression ratio. You can always mill the head or put a slightly thicker headgasket on to adjust your ratio to get it perfect.
