RE: Flat top 454 FE

Ford recommended forged flat top pistons for E/SS racing with 69cc cylinder head volume and the SS shim type head gasket. This combo made 11.6 to 1 compression. This info is for the 428 SS class race engine.
I run an engine like the one you describe with flat top pistons and it runs great. The cylinder heads you use are the most critical item when going the high compression route.
This thread, so far...
