What material are these Mahle pistons made from?

These Mahle pistons are forged from 2618 aluminum. This material is chosen for its strength and durability, making it suitable for high-performance engine applications.

What is the purpose of the thermal barrier coating?

The thermal barrier coating on the piston crown helps to reflect heat away from the combustion chamber. This can contribute to lower operating temperatures and improved durability under demanding conditions.

Are these pistons compatible with all Ford Godzilla engines?

This piston set is specifically designed for the 445 cubic inch Ford Godzilla engine. It's important to confirm that your engine displacement and configuration match these specifications before installation.

Product Details

If you're building a high-performance Ford engine, especially one based on the Godzilla platform, a solid set of pistons is crucial for handling the increased power and stress. This set of eight forged pistons from Mahle is designed for the 445 cubic inch Godzilla engine, offering a robust foundation for your build.

These pistons are forged from 2618 aluminum, a material known for its strength and durability under high temperatures and pressures, making them well-suited for performance applications. They feature a 4.221-inch bore and a 3.976-inch stroke, with a 6.319-inch rod length and a 0.990-inch pin. The -7.8cc valve reliefs are designed to provide proper clearance for your valves, contributing to the 12.0:1 compression ratio. A notable feature is the thermal barrier coating (TBC) on the piston crown, which helps to reflect heat away from the combustion chamber, reducing temperatures and potentially improving efficiency and durability under demanding conditions. Each piston weighs in at 514 grams, providing a balanced rotating assembly.

This set includes all eight pistons needed for a V8 engine. Please note that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. It's always a good idea to consult with your engine builder or refer to Mahle's technical documentation for specific installation guidelines and recommended supporting components to ensure optimal performance and longevity for your build.
