Pistons for a 428
Does anybody know of any manufacturer's that make aftermarket pistons for a 428? I was wondering if there are 10.5-11:1 pistons available to buy. The Summit catalog doesn't list anything for the 428.

TRW makes two versions of the flat top 428 forged pistons. One has a 12.5cc cup and the other has a 5.5cc cup. They should give you pretty good compression but I don't know how much. Summit sells the 12.5cc pistons for $34.39 a piece. PAW sells a set of the 12.5cc with rings for 400 bucks and the 5.5 cc for 441 bucks.

Summit does list a 10.5:1 flat top for a 428CJ, but that's all. Atleast in my catalog. Would 428CJ pistons work for a regular 428 block?
