Default PISTONS ?

I am sure this has been asked before but please bear with me
Are there any pistons available that fit the OHC-6 ?( Other than Kanter & Egge. )
I am pretty sure the ones RockAuto has listed are incorrect.

If I need pistons I will go that way. I have the same question for the rings . Anyone make a good set that fits the OEM pistons ? I know at best I will need rings. So far the engine seems to be stock bore. I'll know more after I pull the pistons.

Thanks guys, I just ordered them. While looking through my parts bins I realized I had exhausted my stock of rings. Did find lots of other goodies ! Amazing what we squirrel away.
