The Mahle MS piston set designed for GM LS engines offers high performance and durability for your 427 cubic inch build. Crafted with a 4.065-inch bore and a 4.125-inch stroke, these pistons provide optimal power and efficiency. Each piston features a 6.125-inch connecting rod compatibility and a piston pin diameter of 0.927 inches, ensuring a precise fit for demanding engine applications. The set includes eight pistons, perfectly suited for rebuilds and performance upgrades in GM LS series engines. Constructed from high-quality materials, these pistons contribute to reliable engine operation and longevity. The Mahle pistons come with a compression ratio of approximately 11.1:1, delivering a balance of power and fuel efficiency. Their lightweight design, with each piston weighing around 7.2 ounces, helps reduce overall engine stress and enhances responsiveness. The pistons feature advanced coatings: phosphate treatment for corrosion resistance, Grafal coating to minimize friction, and a hard anodized top ring groove to improve wear resistance. These enhancements ensure longevity even under high-performance conditions. Please note that these pistons are not carb-legal and require acknowledgment of this status during installation. They are suitable for use in non-carbureted engines and are essential components for custom engine builds or performance upgrades. Proper installation and compliance with all relevant regulations are recommended to ensure optimal engine function and durability.
