Up until a year ago there were none available off the shelf. I think it's Wiseco that just started producing them. You also have the option of 4.8 liter pistons or 07-up 5.3's, which both have flat tops from the factory. I'm gonna search and verify whether or not Wiseco is the correct manufacturer.
