Default Ls2 piston and rings

Does anyone have a couple of stock ls2 pistons and ring laying around?
I need 1 and maybe an extra for the other side I have ripped the head off yet.
Trying to do a cheap rebuild until I can get money for a new block because i have been informed there is basically no room on the sleeves of these blocks to hone them. .010 total. And it was recommended to me to save money and get an iron block built. I dont have the cash right now so I am going to get the heads worked and dingle ball the cylinders and put a other stock piston in it.

Pretty sure you can go more than that on the LS2 stuff
mine is .5mm or roughly .020” over. And thought people claim
the .75mm or .030” is max on the aluminum six liter blocks
