Agree with Terry. We all used Honda pistons a few years back when there was little else. The slipper pistons available from at least 3 of our suppliers are excellent for both race and road engines, and you don’t have to modify anything. Actually they work out cheaper, too.
However, to answer at least some of your questions:
You do need to set the piston height, but the best way is to loosely assemble and measure how much metal has to be removed to get the deck height correct. Take the metal off the top face- the bottom flange is weak enough already.
