Product Details

Mahle is one of the largest original equipment piston manufacturers in the world, and they bring that OE expertise to their replacement parts. If you're rebuilding the engine in your GM 6.5L Diesel V8, this set of eight Mahle OE pistons with rings is a solid choice. These pistons are manufactured to the same specifications as the original equipment, ensuring they'll perform just like the factory parts did when your truck was new.

What sets these Mahle pistons apart is their attention to detail. They feature compensated ring grooves, which help ensure proper ring loading and effective oil control. This means better sealing against the cylinder wall and less oil getting into the combustion chamber. Plus, their expansion-controlled designs allow for minimal clearance between the piston and the cylinder wall. This not only reduces engine noise but also helps lower emissions and improve overall oil control. You'll get pistons ready for installation, complete with mounted piston rings, pins, and clips, making the engine building process more convenient.

This set is specifically sized at .060 inches oversized, designed to fit a wide range of GM 6.5L Diesel V8 applications from the early 90s through the early 2000s, including popular trucks like the Chevrolet C2500, GMC K2500, and AM General Hummer models. Having the rings, pins, and clips included means you have a complete package to get your engine back in running order.
