351w buildup

Hey fellas, I am starting a buildup on a new 86 351w engine, I got the motor from a buddy.
I was also wondering what the comp. ratio was for an 86 351w?
I am looking for some flat top pistons and am having trouble deciding on a set. I was seeing if anyone can help me out on this. I found these on ebay are they any good? Speed Pro pistons. Item number: 7951292730
Or how about some kieth black pistons I found on summits website?
part# UEM-KB151-8

Any help is appriciated.

Check the specs on this Speed-Pro # 844-L2446F30 here:

I used a Similar TRW piston, with 69cc heads you get 9.08:1
also I picked a set of 1970 heads. These have 3/8" rocker studs, not the 5/16" like later 351w. Good luck!
