Max wedge or street wedge? What compression ratio are you wanting?
Either one will not be easy and cheap shruggy

It's a street wedge block Hughes and Campbell want to much for pistons.probably 10:1 compression don't want to run race fuel.

Check with these guys:

http://www.ebaystores.com/Johnsons-Speed-Warehouse

I think they buy and have bought up a lot of old warehouse stock from the 60's and possibly other eras. I often find that they have what I need. I bought a set of NOS TRW forged pistons for my poly 318 and found that they had several different sets in various over-bores. There are also a few M/W sites that may be helpful if you haven't already checked.

Do you have the heads you want to run?

I would have your block sonic tested to see how thick both the thrust surfaces are, if they are all .180 or thicker and at least .120 thick after boring on the front and back sides of all cylinder walls you could think about boring it to 4.320, which is the standard 440 bore size work scope twocents
What year was your block cast in? Is it a street wedge casting or or is it a 1964 M.W. casting used in a 1964 or early 1965 street car build with the smaller heads and oil pan pickup? scope
As far as compression ratio and iron heads I would not put more than 9.5 to 1 compression ratio in it max twocents Pump gas is not going to get better, is it work

There are a lot more choices on 440 standard pistons than 426 street wedges, correct? shruggy
I would order a set of standard 440 350 HP 1968 to 1971 pistons scope

If you want to build a 426W then you have to buy semi-custom pistons.

I have a fresh street wedge block with pistons matched. The pistons were originally high ratio Maxwedge but had the domes cut to low ratio height with the plans to run as a stocker back in the early 90’s. Been bagged ever since.

.030”, bored and honed with plates, parallel decked for clean up only, fresh cam bearings, was baked and blasted.
Has the A stamp on the pad - 1965.

Won’t separate the pistons.
