JE Pistons Gen 3 Coyote 5.0L 3.701in Bore 12:1 CR 5.86cc Dome Pistons - Set of 8 Pistons

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Gen 3 Coyote 5.0L engine for serious performance, a set of high-quality forged pistons is essential. These pistons from JE Pistons are built to handle the demands of high-horsepower applications, offering a significant upgrade over stock cast pistons. With a 12:1 compression ratio and a 3.701-inch bore, they're designed to optimize power output for performance builds.

JE Pistons uses a proprietary forging design called FSR (Forged Side Relief) which helps minimize friction and power loss by reducing skirt width. They're forged from 2618 aluminum right here in the USA, a material known for its high tensile strength, making these pistons well-suited for high-demand performance uses. Depending on the specific application, some sets include an accumulator groove to help reduce combustion gas pressure, which can prevent ring flutter and improve ring seal for consistent power delivery. Some applications also feature a skirt coating that further reduces friction and wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls, while also helping to quiet down engine noise.

This set includes eight pistons, each with a 5.86cc dome volume, and comes with a 0.866-inch pin. JE Pistons has been making forged pistons for over 75 years, and their experience shows in the durability and performance of these components. Keep in mind that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and assembly details.
