Stock dished pistons on 6500-7000 RPM track beater?

Hi,

 

My newly built race car engine blew up. I just want to get my car ready so I can start racing again.

 

1.Would it be a terrible idea to just throw the head on a junkyard block I have laying around in the garage? It's the early dished pistons.

 

2.Can the stock pistons survive hard tracking with shift points around 6500 and occasional overreving to 7000 rpm?

 

Debating if I should get new rings or just throw on the head an go racing.

Engine is a 200hp ish L28 with cam, ms and polished head.

 

I am fine with the potential loss of performance with dished vs the flat tops I had.
