Oversized pistons Question

If I was to go oversize from std and locate an OEM flathead piston then I
need the dimensions of the originals.

I would like to bore to some standard oversize dimension.

I am thinking that the OEM product, of which I am open to suggestions,
maybe longer (or shorter) in which case I would have to compensate on the
length of the piston rod.

Also, if I hipo'd the alpine engine should I think about the drive train too. Not necessarly replacement but an upgrade of somesort. It has an OD.

What about the cam shaft?
