1966 Ford Mustang Pistons
|
Here you can see the difference between Smeding's custom KB-piston (left) and a factory-style piston. The long rod pushes the wrist pin high in the piston, making the body dramatically shorter. The shorter compression height and lesser material calls for a more dense composition to survive in a high-performance engine. That's why Smeding's 500hp-and-up engines use forged pistons.
