CP Piston Bullet Race Series Ford 408Ci Std/Twisted 4.030 Bore 1.280 Ch -8.7CC Flat Top Set Of 8

Forged from 2618-T61 aluminum, these CP Pistons Bullet Race Series pistons are built for serious performance in your Ford 408ci engine. The 4.030 inch bore size is standard for many 408ci builds, and the -8.7cc dish volume on the flat top piston helps achieve a desired compression ratio when paired with your cylinder heads. This set includes eight pistons, designed to handle the stresses of high-performance applications.

CP Pistons uses a proprietary forging process to create pistons that are both strong and lightweight. The 1.280 inch compression height is a key measurement that ensures proper piston-to-deck clearance and valve timing when installed. These pistons are intended for builders who need reliable components for their custom engine builds, offering a solid foundation for increased power and durability. They are designed to work with standard wrist pins and are a popular choice for those looking to rebuild or upgrade their Ford V8 engine.

When installing these pistons, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommended clearances and lubrication procedures. Because these are performance pistons, they often require specific ring gap settings and bore honing techniques to ensure optimal performance and longevity. If you're building a high-performance Ford engine, this set of eight pistons provides the robust construction and precise dimensions needed for a successful build.
