Default Raptor Pistons question

Ok, right now my 2001 raptor is apart for reasons i think almost all 2001 owners know, tranny. It busted and we are replacing all the barings and got 2002 tranny. Since it is all apart we have descided to put Big gun exhaust (full), rejet the carbs getting a stage 2 web cam with a spring kit, boring it to 686 and adding a 11:1 compression piston. Here is my question Are the Wise Co. pistons any good? Has anyone had any problems with them?
