Here's a pic of the new piston




Went with the FP diesel cause they are new rather than reman and have a ceramic coating which I really like.

Cylinders going in today!

there not ceramic coated , there phosphate and grafal coated , reduses friction , if memory serves me right mahal has been a oem pistion manufacture for cat cummins jd an others , that is there monanotherm one piece forged steel pistion , why they ever tryed a 2 piece pistion is beyond me .

My understanding is the entire piston is coated like you stated but mine were ordered with a optional ceramic coating which i believe is the off color part you see on the skirt.
