Whats up with these pistons?

TRW L2431F .030 POWERFORGED PISTONS 3.8 BUICK

CID: 231
LTR: 3.8
MAKE: BUICK
MFG: TRW
BORE DIA.: 3.800
O.S.: .030
PIN DIA.: .940
COMP DIST.: 1.810
MATERIAL:FORGED ALUMINUM
HEAD SHAPE :.231 DISH X 3.070 DIA.
RING LAND SIZES:
TOP5/64”
SEC5/64”
OIL3/16”


Are these pistons discontinued? I can't seem to find them mentioned or for sale anywhere else. All I see that is similar is the L2481F which seems to have a longer comp. distance at 1.825. I don't mind the slight decrease in compression.

I'm considering picking these up, just want to make sure they are legit. Can anyone verify?

Yeah that was one of my sources, they only list the 2481F in their for sale section. Maybe they might have them listed somewhere else, I'll have to re-check.

You may need to call them to see what happened to them.
