390 light truck FE of the '70s used a 410 piston.
By Dave Shoe - 03/20/2002 7:08:24 PM; IP 12.2.11.131
The 390 light truck engine used a 410 diecast piston to achieve it's lower compression. Check out the Silvolite website for blueprints of their various offerings along the 390 truck line.

Once you determine which 390 light truck used the piston you want, you can either go to the corner auto parts store and order a nice cheap cast set, or you can order Silvolites, which I believe may be lightweight hypereutectic aluminum.
