Sorry. just 4.213/4.233/4.253

I oversized them a bit due to the fact that they fit so tight.003-.0035 piston to bore. Mahle already has an option for steel pistons for the 5.9(although quite heavy) So I did not feel like going into competition with them. I do have a set for an o4.5-07 if you need them.


Hey Snedge, You got Head gaskets for a '20 6.7 H.O. Ive been driving mine for three months with a blown gasket... National backorder.

Cheers Guys...

Is that .003-0035" with a filled/solid block or water cooled ? Just curious if you have different spec with and without coolant. Thanks

Again very interested!

These are one piece design?

Any testing done with heavy nitrous use/abuse?

Ever thought about branching out with the steel piston idea.

Have an engine that has no options besides aluminum, steel would sell like hot cakes to gain reliability.
