About this part

Product Details

CP Pistons has built a reputation for making strong, reliable forged pistons for demanding engine builds. This set of Bullet Race Series pistons is specifically for the Ford 4.6L 3V engine. They feature a 3.572 inch bore and a -9cc dish, which is a notable detail for tuning your compression ratio. This set includes eight pistons, enough for a full V8 engine rebuild.

These pistons are forged, meaning they start as a solid block of aluminum that's heated and hammered into shape. This process creates a much stronger and more durable piston than cast aluminum, making them well-suited for high-performance applications where increased cylinder pressures are common. The Bullet Race Series is designed with performance in mind, aiming for a good balance of strength and weight. The -9cc dish is a specific volume that will affect your final compression ratio when paired with your cylinder heads and gasket thickness. It's important to calculate this carefully to achieve your desired engine performance and reliability.

When rebuilding your Ford 4.6L 3V, using a well-built piston set like these from CP Pistons is a solid choice. Remember that these pistons are 0.020 inches undersize from the standard bore size, so your block will need to be bored and honed to match this dimension. Please note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
