I have a clean set of these pistons but cant find any data on them on the WWW - does anyone know if they are TRW and what compression ratio they might be?

Can you post a picture of the piston?

Sounds like a TRW number... Even if they are hi-dome many times there is usually enough beef in the tops to be cut down for street use.

The hitch will be if they are setup for dykes rings or standard..

They are rated at 12.5-1. Most people cut the domes off and got about 10-1 to run them on the street. They were tough pistons but very heavy. To be honest you are better off spending the little extra money and buying a light, modern piston such as CP or Diamond. Your rods and rod bolts will thank you.
