Overbore pistons and High Revs 140-160

I've got a block that I'm about to build for my club car and I was wondering if there is an issue with using the B21 pistons in a B20 motor at the higher end of the rev band.

I want to build a motor which can stand 7-7.5k rpm but if i can use the B21 (does B23 fit?) pistons then that would be great but I've only heard about them only going to 5500rpm reliably. Is this true?

Thanks!
