Helpful Notes
- Professional machining (boring/honing with torque plates) and piston-to-wall clearance must be verified by your engine builder.
- Not legal for use on pollution-controlled vehicles on public roads where emissions compliance is required.
FAQ
Will these pistons fit my LB7/LLY/LBZ/LMM/LML without machine work?No. These are .020" oversize. Your block must be bored and honed to match and final clearances checked by a qualified builder.
Do these include rings and pins?Pins and rings are typically sold separately. See the recommended parts links above for compatible options.
What's the advantage of de-lipped and coated pistons?The de-lipped bowl reduces a common stress riser, improving strength for high cylinder pressure. Coated crowns manage heat and coated skirts help reduce friction and scuffing.
Are these street legal with emissions equipment?These are race-oriented components. Check local laws. Installation may affect emissions compliance on public roads.
