Where the hell is everyone getting there pistons from?

Man I sold my SRP pistons because of all the horror stories but don't know what and where to get pistons at. Any suggestions?
Eagle crank 3.480
eagle rods 5.7

4.035 dished pistons wanted since block was bored to 4.030 but srp sizes varies .029 - .032

t76, real quick log manifold, ebay cold parts, In the process of getting a custom turbo cam from Ron at A.I.

I'm ready to get this ****er going been sitting for a long while now. 15#'s + of boost. No low boost mode, straight kill mode...

I ordered one of A.I.'s rotating kits with compstar crank and rods and had it customized to include -31 diamond pistons.

I ordered threw advanced induction but I think they ordered all my stuff threw callies. I think callies has a deal with the piston manufacturers for there rotating kits.

My srps are used from this board
My shop gave me a real dirty look when I brought them in and asked them to check tolerances.
Used SRPs on a boosted motor? Yessir

looks like you need to search on here for "Mahle 2618" and you will see my post. you will not find ANYTHING off the shelf from ANYONE else in a 2618 alloy that will fit a 3.48 and 5.7 rods. Ive looked/called JE/ROSS/DIAMOND/SRP/etc...
