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!

I've been havin the pistons cut in my high compression engines used in more heavy haul (100k+lbs) applications, cat and cummins. Just for extra insurance. I feel it helps some with heat and cylinder pressure, helping head gaskets. Haven't had any negative effects yet....

if u are cutting your pistons to reduce compression , depending how much your taking off , u should have your whole rotating assembly re balanced , u could also just reduce your boost
cylinder presser is the key , higher compression less boost and vice versa , to a point that is
