Am building race engine for Pocono (April 11th) and have run against snag. 
Dennis Welch Motorsports is back ordered 4-6 wks on the flat top 88mm 
pistons, which requires my sourcing a set of racing pistons elsewhere. if 
anyone on the list has had a custom set fabricated by JE Pistons or a 
similar piston maker, i would appreciate the specs and/or order # so i could 
piggyback off the design specs? am sticking with the stock wrist pins 
(floating in piston, clenched to con rod).

alternately, if anyone knows of a set for sale somewhere, would be very 
interested.

also interested in speaking with anyone with experience

engine is otherwise in the works, and i am loathe to use my existing set of 
0.20" over M-spec (shallow dish) pistons a stopgap measure, since it means 
building a second short block for a single season's use.

also could use input from anyone with information as to locations and depths 
for valve relief pockets.

thanks.
