The Manley Performance forged piston kit identified by manufacturer part number 612202C-4 is engineered for a measured performance-engine assembly. Final compatibility depends on the exact engine, mating components, and verified dimensions, not a similar product title alone.
Key Features
- Tool Steel Wrist Pins: Heavy-duty 21mm x 63mm pins with wire locks deliver secure rod connection and long-term durability.
- 2618 T6 Alloy Forgings: High-temperature aluminum alloy provides strength to withstand extreme boost pressures and RPMs in turbocharged EJ257 engines.
- Optimized Skirt Profiles: Proven cam and barrel skirt designs minimize friction, reduce wear, and ensure quiet operation under load.
- Compatible with stock EJ257 connecting rods (130mm length) and 79mm stroke crankshaft.
- Precision machining includes 30mm compression height for exact deck clearance.
- Moly Skirt Coating: Applied to select surfaces to prevent scuffing, galling, and cylinder wall damage during break-in and operation.
