Ford Goes Crate - Ford's New Racing Crate Engine
The flat-top pistons are forgings from Mahle. They have a good, modern design with small slipper skirts and narrow wristpins to minimize weight. The skirts have also been treated to Mahle's proprietary anti-friction coating. The pins are 2.280 inches long with a diameter of 0.927 inch. They are fully floating, and wire locks hold them in position instead of spiral locks, which can cause damage to the piston if the engine experiences detonation.
