The Mahle MS Piston Set designed for GM LT1 engines offers high-performance components tailored for demanding automotive applications. Crafted with a bore diameter of 4.130 inches and a stroke of 4 inches, these pistons are engineered to deliver optimal power and durability. The set includes pistons with a 6.125-inch connecting rod length and a wrist pin diameter of 0.927 inches, ensuring a precise fit and smooth operation. Featuring a compression ratio of approximately 12.4:1, these pistons are ideal for high-performance builds, providing enhanced combustion efficiency and power output. The pistons are coated with phosphate, Grafal, and a hard anodized top ring groove, which contribute to wear resistance, reduced friction, and improved heat dissipation, extending engine longevity.
Constructed from high-quality materials, each piston weighs around 457 grams, ensuring balanced engine performance. The set is designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-performance engines, with specific features such as a -6.1cc valve relief volume that optimizes compression and combustion. These pistons are not carb-legal but require carb acknowledgment for installation, making them suitable for specialized automotive applications. The set complies with Prop 65 standards, ensuring environmental safety, and is packaged as a set of eight, suitable for a complete engine rebuild or performance upgrade. Precision engineered by Mahle, this piston set provides a reliable solution for enhancing your GM LT1 engine's power and efficiency, making it an excellent choice for enthusiasts and professional rebuilders alike.
