Default Piston options 4.125 bore with stock 3.622 stroke?

Looking to sleeve my LS4 block and bore to 4.125" https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...eve-6-2-a.html
I spoke to Steve at Race Engine Development, and am considering getting this done soon.

I need to use my factory LS4 crankshaft which is shortend 3mm on the flexplate side and 10mm on the accessory drive end. Everything else on the LS4 is Gen IV related, so I plan on using my stock crank and rods with bigger pistons. Is there a off the shelf piston for 4.125" bore with a 3.622" stroke using factory rods, or do I need to go custom?

Wiseco has two different (different compression ratios) 4.125" bore stock stroke pistons on the shelf.

From what I see on their catalog... No you can't go that size on stock rods. I'm not even sure what your deck height is on that motor. Here is their catalog. http://www.wiseco.com/Catalogs/Automotive/Chevrolet.pdf
