Instead of liners why dont you have the originals de-Nikasiled, bored, honed,and then re-Nikasiled. When I looked into it I was quoted $1600.00 out the door for everything. The aluminum liners are thick enough and if you go to 4" or 4.030" an entire world of off the shelf forged pistons (cheap) becomes available. They would require some crown work but nothing major. Something to think about if you don't wanrt to spend lots of $$$.
