Most big piston manufactures: JE, KB, etc. will custom make any size piston you want!

If they ask why it must be out of curiousity... my guess is our talking to the wrong peeps.

They probably think Flat tops with small chamber heads is better than a dome piston. The reason is that the flame travel is better with a flat top verses a dome

We can get you a dome piston off the shelf for a 6.125 rod. Not a 6.25 rod. You can give us a call and have a custom piston made.
