What material are these pistons made from?

These Manley pistons are forged from domestic 2618 alloy. This material is chosen for its superior strength and ability to perform under high stress and temperature conditions common in performance engines.

What is the purpose of the cam and barrel skirt profiles?

The cam and barrel profiles on the piston skirts are designed to optimize the piston's movement within the cylinder. This design helps to generate substantial power while also minimizing wear on the cylinder walls for a longer-lasting engine.

Are these pistons compatible with all 4.6L Modular V8 engines?

These pistons are specifically designed for Ford 4.6L Modular V8 engines and feature a 3.582-inch bore and a -14.00cc dish. It's important to verify that these specifications match your engine's requirements and your build goals.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Ford 4.6L Modular V8 for serious performance, a strong set of pistons is where you start. These Manley pistons are built for demanding builds, designed to handle the extra stress and heat that comes with boosted or high-compression setups. They feature a -14.00cc dish, which is a key spec for tuning compression ratios in performance applications.

Manley uses domestic 2618 alloy forgings, a material known for its strength and ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures without deforming. The pistons also feature proven cam and barrel skirt profiles, which help them run smoothly against the cylinder walls while still making good power. You'll find exacting standards applied to the ring lands and grooves, which is crucial for getting a solid seal from your piston rings, leading to more efficient combustion and better power output. The unique fixturing Manley uses ensures the ring grooves are perfectly square to the piston skirt, another detail that contributes to a reliable engine build.

This set includes tool steel wrist pins for added durability, and the pistons come with a moly skirt coating on this specific part number to further reduce friction and wear. These are a solid choice for anyone looking to build a powerful and durable engine for their Ford Modular V8.
