I'd use the Mahle Flat Tops.

The setups are designed for flat top pistons in a stroker.

where is a good place to purchase from? I had a list of sites to buy from when I was building my engine but they were lost in the great computer screw up of 2004.

finding LT1 parts is hard when everyone is converting to LS1 only

I'd have to agree with Bret, I love mahle pistons. I can't say anything about Probe cause I have never used them. I would sell you my mahle's, but they are for a 6" rod, I think a blower is in the future so I need a bigger dish.

 

The Mahle's are good pistons. There have been more than a few guys lately who have had problems with them in really high compression drag and sprint engines though. I think they're just fine for street but I wouldn't put one in a heavily blown street/strip or high comp race engine, but that's just me.

For an all out street screamer I like to use a piston with a 1.2/1.2/3mm ring stack. So that takes a lot of the lower cost piston makers out of the equation unless you ask them for a "custom".

In lieu of that..... for high quality lower cost forgings, it's hard to beat Diamond.

The KB flat tops are about $200 at Summit.
