Supertech Ford 2.0L/2.3L 87.5mm Bore +7.8cc Dome 12.5:1 CR/14:1 CR Pistons - Set of 4 (Excl Rings)

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Ford 2.0L or 2.3L and aiming for a significant increase in compression, this set of Supertech pistons is a solid choice. These are forged pistons, meaning they start as a solid block of aluminum that's heated and hammered into shape under immense pressure. This process creates a much stronger and more durable piston than cast aluminum, making them ideal for higher performance applications where increased cylinder pressures are expected. This set is designed for an 87.5mm bore and features a dome volume of +7.8cc, which helps achieve either a 12.5:1 or 14:1 compression ratio, depending on your cylinder head volume. Remember, these pistons do not include piston rings, so you'll need to source those separately.

The forged construction is key here. It allows these pistons to withstand the higher temperatures and pressures associated with increased compression ratios and more aggressive engine tuning. The dome shape is carefully designed to promote efficient combustion and can help optimize airflow within the cylinder. When installing these, pay close attention to the manufacturer's specifications for piston-to-wall clearance and ring gap, as these are critical for proper engine operation and longevity, especially with forged components. This set is a substantial upgrade for anyone looking to push the performance envelope of their Ford 2.0L or 2.3L engine.
