Default Custom piston supplier

OK, in the never ending world world of, "were's waldo the piston", I just spoke with Arias Pistons regarding pistons for the 702. Nick III says they can custom make the flat top pistons for all the GMC engines. I thought the price was reasonable for a custom piston at approx $176 per hole with piston pins. That is cheapest I could find. Others mfg laughed at me. Still looking for a set on ebay.

For $176 a piston that's very reasonable, I will definitely consider them for a next build, with flat tops that will knock up the compression too.
