Is this true?
Was told I'd be better off just buying cast Aluminum flat tops vs. dished pistons.
What do you guys think?
Will be running 64cc Aluminum heads which will have about 11:1 compression.

Considering Keith Black makes most everybody's pistons. Makes some of the baddest engine's on the planet. I would say if you were buying some of their CHEAP "cast " pistons, then maybe they are heavy. Hyperutectic pistons are usually lighter than forged too. They made me a custom set for my 505 with a set of Hellfire rings and I mean gas ported and all the best tricks for 6 bills when nobody else had time for me.
Also, when my machinist went to balance the pistons. He took little too nothing off them. You wont know your compression until you know what type of piston you will be running. Flattop, dish, or dome.....
