Maybe I missed some earlier posts, but what engine are you working on, and what sort of application? Just at a glance, those high-dome pistons remind me of what Deere was selling during the 60s and early 70s for high-altitude use in gas tractor engines. My neighbor put Deere high-altitude pistons in his 2020 - and what a mess! We're are in central New York - not real high elevations. The goal with using the pistons was more horsepower. Even with high-test gasoline, the tractor pinged, detonated, it was just about useless. Finally had to pull it apart and redo with standard pistons.
