Did you actually bore the engine without having pistons for it first?
Most people seem to use Mazda pistons & I think that the MX5 engine is the preferred donor. Hopefully others will either confirm, or set the record straight.

mazda e5 pistons will fit with some mods like machine small ends but the biggest problem is head gasket size. One other thing, the larger the bore size the thiner the bore which can pose problem in big horsepower engines.
