What is the main advantage of a forged piston over a cast piston?

Forged pistons are made by hammering heated aluminum into shape, which creates a denser, stronger grain structure. This makes them more resistant to heat and stress compared to cast pistons, which are poured into a mold.

Does this piston come with rings and pins?

This listing is for a single piston only. Piston rings and wrist pins are typically sold separately and should be checked for compatibility before installation.

Can this piston be shipped to California?

No, this piston is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.
