I think JWT has some "off the shelf" Arias pistons in stock. I went with JE, and have been waiting for 6 weeks.-Jeff

http://raceeng.com/ supposedly has weisco pistons in stock.

JWT has arias pistons, however unless you go with the piston/rod combo you're going to be out of luck as well. A few days ago I called and they told me the pistons themselves are going to be out of stock for a while.

I myself am crossing my fingers now, ross told me 2-3 weeks, but I'm thinking the wait can't be much different than JE or others.

RAce engineering never has them in stock but seems to do a good job telling people that they do.

The best piston making company out there (IMO) is BRC. They custom make pistons to your request to any CR. Even put the ring landings where you want them to. BRC is located in FL and have a 2 week turn around. They are also the best priced of $320 for the set of 4. I found out about them at Z31.com. All of those Z guys seem to love BRC saying they are the absolute best. I have had no problems with them. Very fast and supportive. Great tech advice etc.
