3.8 pistons/liner options??

I am about to purchase new aftermarket pistons, but thought I'd see if anyone new of any companies selling 3.8 pistons/sleeves. If not I will just order some aftermarket OEM sized replacements.

Thanks

I'm running Mahle Motorsport 3.8 piston/liner kit. Direct drop in, zero issues. Pistons are deaxiated which is what you want. I doubt any of the aftermarket stuff is. Mahle is OEM supplier, no guesswork there...

If you are going big power then get CP forged pistons with iron liners.
