No

If your going to do a mini-me then that will change your compression.

You need to get pistons for a EX since that is the head you will use and the compression will be off.

BTW, look for group buys or specials, you don't need to spend 400 dollars for slugs unless you plan on getting crazy with the power.

If so, go to goldeneaglemfg.com and get some sleeves, pistons and rods from them assembled.

It's possible with a good tuner.
