Actually i found out why it sent you a LS1 spec pistons. pop in camaro 3.8 on there ,look up pistons, then click out, then open up my url address i posted on here4 ,itll come up 3.8. if you looked up anything LS1 on there or another car, for some reason its popping up the last car you looked up on there.

When I clicked the link it wanted location / year / make / model, so I just entered it since I knew what car you have. Took me right to your 3.8 pistons then....

well I think I made my decision, im gonna go with the sealed power pistons, and ill look into the rings that jzjz was talking about cause htey said they make them on their website, except for the chrome oil rings I believe.

Good catch, I'd been on that site previously looking up 2002 Camaro parts...so it found me LS1 pistons.

I've not heard or read anything bad about Sealed Power pistons or rings, and I used plenty of them in my past life.

Clevite bearings, on the other hand, have gotten a bad reputation in recent years. They may have fixed the process by now, but King bearings were the hotness last I checked.
