the only thing i cant figure out is the part #.

The six digits on them don't match anything in the current sport compact catalog. they all start with a 3 in there.

The guy said he called Arias and got some rude lady who just popped off an answer of 8:1 compression, but Arias didn't make anything but a flat top and a 9:1 dish piston for this application, so I dunno. They are 75.00mm, he measured them.

Sounds a bit fishy, get on the horn with Arias first.

This is actually very similar to a position I was in. I bought a set of arias pistons with forged I beam crower rods for like 500 bucks. When I received them I got a set of beat ass pistons...long story short I had to call arias and they didnt know what the hell they were. I would never buy used pistons unless I knew the guy.....bottom line ;)
