JE Pistons 5.4 3V MODULAR 11:1 Set of 8 Pistons

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 5.4L 3V Modular Ford, a set of high-performance pistons is a critical component. This set from JE Pistons is designed to handle the demands of performance builds, offering an 11:1 compression ratio that's ideal for naturally aspirated or forced induction applications where you want a noticeable bump in power without going too extreme.

JE Pistons has been making forged pistons for a long time, and they build these right here in the USA using 2618 aluminum. This material is chosen because it's strong and can handle the high temperatures and pressures found in performance engines. They use a proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design which means the skirts are narrower and shorter, reducing friction and saving weight. Some applications also include an accumulator groove to help keep combustion gases from getting under the rings, which improves the seal and keeps power consistent. If the application calls for it, you'll also find a skirt coating that further cuts down on friction and noise, while also reducing wear on the cylinder walls.

This kit includes everything you need for an 8-cylinder engine, with a 3.562-inch bore and a 0.866-inch wrist pin diameter. Keep in mind these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For serious engine builds, JE Pistons are a well-known name that brings a lot of experience to the table.
