Well, I thought I had it figured out. After being jerked around by two different scammers from the wtb/fs forum, I bought a set of b35 piano tops off ebay. I thought they would work, but no. They interfer. So, I'm back looking for b34 or m106 dished pistons. Any leads appreciated.
It's probably for the best. I've had trouble keeping 8:1 motor together, so 10:1, was bound to pop.
