Manley 4.6L Ford Modular (2/4 Valve) 3.552in Bore 1.2in CD -28cc Dish Pistons - Set of 8

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1996-2004 Ford Mustang, these Manley Performance pistons are a solid choice for enhanced strength and performance. This set is specifically designed for the 4.6L Ford Modular engine, whether it's the 2-valve or 4-valve version, and features a 3.552-inch bore with a -28cc dish. They are built using Manley's signature Platinum Series construction, which means you're getting a well-built part trusted by professional engine builders.

Manley uses domestic 2618 alloy forgings for these pistons, a material known for its superior strength and ability to handle demanding conditions. They also come with premium chrome moly wrist pins, and for some applications, Manley offers upgrades to even stronger alloys like 9310 or Turbo Tuff/DLC for added durability. The ring lands and grooves are machined to exacting standards, which helps ensure a better ring seal, leading to more power. Plus, the cam and barrel skirt profiles are designed to generate power efficiently while also being gentle on your cylinder walls, contributing to a longer engine life.

What sets these pistons apart is Manley's unique fixturing process. It allows them to machine the skirt and cut the ring grooves in a single operation. This ensures the ring grooves are perfectly square to the piston skirt, which is critical for proper ring function and sealing. This attention to detail means you're getting a piston that's ready to perform right out of the box for your Mustang's engine build.
