Default piston recommendation.

I have a lQ4 that is in really good shape just rehoned it. Im looking for a good piston to run and cant really find much with a 4" bore 3.622 stroke in a -3 or around there dish. I would really like to run wiseco but they are on back order and its the only thing that im waiting on for the motor. Any one have any other suggestions?

Need to know your goals before anyone can make any form of a suggestion.

iv got wiseco -8cc pistons as the -3cc were going to be back order, and the place i got them through gave me a discount on the -8 as they had them readily available.
i'm running a thinner head gasket to bring my comp ratio up, but i can always drop it to accommodate if i wish to, i'm running 64 cc chamber heads though. But might help.
