I would go with the 87MM.
I rebuilt my TR4 engine back in Winter 98 with a 87 MM piston/liner set from
British Parts Northwest. That winter they were the only ones that had any
supply above 83 MM and they had a great price to boot.
Very pleased with the quality. The pistons were Maule and the rings were
Deeves. I don't know the source of the liners. The parts came from Germany.
