Frequently Asked Questions
What compression ratio do these pistons support?
Hypereutectic pistons are rated for 8.8:1 compression and up to 10.5:1 on pump fuel. Higher compression requires sintered or forged pistons.
Are these for .010 overbore or stock bore?
These are .010 oversized pistons — your cylinders must be bored .010 over to fit correctly.
Why hypereutectic instead of forged?
Hypereutectic alloy offers tighter ring seal, quieter operation, and lower cost than forged. Forged pistons are better for high-compression racing or nitrous builds.
Do I need new rings and wrist pins?
Check with the ring and pin supplier — KB typically requires compatible ring sets and wrist pins specific to these piston dimensions.
Can I run these on ethanol-blend fuel?
These are designed for pump fuel (up to 10% ethanol). Verify compatibility with your fuel supplier if running higher ethanol blends.
