I am thinking of doing a 103 build. Has anyone used the aftermarket piston that get rid of the squeesh that the 96 are supposed to have, and do you think it helped.

RE: 103 build?
I have not used them personally, because I don;t have on 07. The situation & fix has been explained to me. By moving the wrist pin hole a bit lower (very technical term 
) , it raises the piston top up flush with the deck. As I understand it, you can also accomplish the same result by using a very thin head gasket (.021" or somesuch).
For a more better explanation, give Doug or Kevin @ Head-Quarters a holler.
