No decking unless it comes up later. Didnt talk about it
talk to the machine shop and tell them your expectations, they may recommend a piston that will meet your criteria. or they might say that you're on your own!
you *need* to communicate with the machine shop. this is KEY. remember, bore finish is important to what rings you're going to run, which goes hand in hand with what pistons you use. also, *some* head gaskets require a specific finish on the block and heads to seal properly.
if you drop it off and just tell them to pop it to "whatever over" till it's clean and do the usual stuff then you're taking a gamble on what you get back. and if you don't know
for sure what the criticals are, then you can't really order parts with confidence or assemble.
i mean, you can... if you're just doing production work and you're fine with whatever the outcome is.
