they appear to be invader piston, and not 4/6 which have a different pin location.

The only difference is the ring pin location.  If you use them in 4/6 cylinders the gap will ride the intake bridge.  Some have used them without issue but when the rings get worn there is more chance of catching a ring.

If you're worried about it take your pistons to a machine shop and have them move the pin location otherwise I've ran them for years in my race engines and never had any issues if you're still worried take your cylinders to a welding shop have them weld in more fill on the bridge then go through the process of die grinding & blending then send your cylinders off for new plating

The pin placement is not an issue with running invader pistons in 4/6.  I have slid invader pistons in 4/6 cylinder and both pins ride on solid cylinder between the boost ports - they will not catch.

But, look at attached pic.  invader on left, 4/6 on right.  The top ring rides a bit higher on the invader.  Not sure if this would would make any difference.

I just have mine apart as we speak and the pin is located threw the intake port it scares me but what choice is there
