haha you won't have better luck going to advance or napa, they don't know anything at those places especially something that specific.

If you don't get a response to your thread just bump it or message a moderator, there are a lot of threads posted everyday and they don't always all get a response. Especially if it's a new members.

Here's a comparison of three very similar pistons.
The d15b7's pm3 piston is on the left, the d16y8's p2p piston is in the middle and on the right is the d16y7's p2e piston.

d16y7 piston has the lowest compression, followed closely by the d16y8 and the d15b7 has the highest compression ratio. The rods are almost identical on the d16y8 and d16y7.
