You can use AP2 pistons but the compression will be something like 0.4 point below what you would get with Ap1 pistons. The AP2 pistons have a smaller dome to compensate for the extra 10% capacity being pushed into the same combustion chamber in the head. Ideally beg/borrow/steal a set of 87mm AP1 pistons.

Ha ha okay I'm going to try to get my hands on AP1 pistons and rods hopefully I can find some in good condition. Thank you for your help once again.
