FAQ
Is the price for one piston or a full set?
CPP Diesel sells this as a complete set of eight (8) pistons with rings.
What does “.010" reduced compression height” do?
It shortens the compression height by .010" to better manage cylinder pressure and deck/gasket variations in work and towing builds while maintaining OE reliability.
Do I need machine work for .020" over?
Yes. Have a qualified machine shop bore/hone the block to .020" and set piston-to-wall clearance to MAHLE spec.
Are the skirts coated?
No—this configuration uses a non-coated OE-style skirt.
