does anyone know where i can find a stock replacement style 2002 LQ4 piston set with a flat top. i want more compression out of my STD. bore LQ4. i already have 243's but i wanted to get rid of the dish piston and be in the 11 compression range. my lq4 has the press in wrist pin and all the sets i have found are for floating pins. thanks for any help,, and yes i have done a search and havent found what i was looking for.

wasn't the LQ9 higher compression? maybe those pistons will work.

yes they are flat top's, but they have a floating pin and i dont think they will work. i have seen ads for pistons that say "will work with floating or press pins". but i think i saw that on ebay and i know they have different pin diameters. so it didnt make sense to me.

Why not get a set of lq9 or ls2 pistons and rods then?

Summit has sealed power oem pistons for like $250 Those should work!
