Anyone know what kind of machine work would have to be done. I came across a set of pistions and they are a good bit larger then stock Sl6 pistons.Any ideas would be great. Thanks. TJ |

Even if they could be made to work, I'd have reservations. The piston design on the 3.0 was a big part of its eternal problems with high oil consumption. Yes, the valve guides dropping down in the head were a bigger contributor, but even with the guides fixed the 3.0 was prone to being a blue smoker because of the ring package and narrow ring lands on the piston. |
