Hey there, we've done pistons for the 5.3 before as custom. .945 is the pin diameter. There is a dish in the stock piston that can be shallowed to increase compression without resorting to a dome. Basically any compression ratio you want. If that's a direction you want to go, feel free to email me at bnutter@wiseco.com
bore= 3.78
Stroke=3.622
Rod=6.098
Deck Height=9.240
commpression height= 9.240-(6.098+(3.622/2))= 1.331"
Just call one of the many fine sponsors and order custom pistons. They will tell you everything you need to know.
