Manley Ford 4.6L Modular V8 Piston Set - 3.572in Bore 1.200in CH, -28.00 CC

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1996-2004 Ford Mustang, especially for performance applications, this set of Manley 4.6L Modular V8 pistons is a solid choice. These aren't just stock replacements; they're forged from 2618 alloy, a material known for its strength and ability to handle higher stresses than cast aluminum, making them ideal for boosted or high-compression builds.

Manley has put a lot of thought into the design of these pistons. They feature proven cam and barrel skirt profiles, which help them run smoothly and quietly while minimizing wear on your cylinder walls. The ring lands and grooves are machined to very precise standards, which is crucial for getting a good seal from your piston rings. A good ring seal means more power and better efficiency. These pistons also come with chrome moly wrist pins, and Manley's unique manufacturing process ensures the ring grooves are perfectly square to the piston skirt, further contributing to a solid seal.

This set includes pistons with a 3.572-inch bore size, a 1.200-inch compression height, and a -28.00cc dish volume, which is important for achieving your target compression ratio. Remember, these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. If you're aiming for serious performance from your 4.6L Modular V8, these Manley pistons are a well-built foundation.
