Custom Piston Set for Ford 2.3 Turbo Engine

The CP-Carrillo custom pistons are a high-performance piston set specifically designed for Ford 2.3 Turbo engines, particularly those utilizing a Volvo 16v head. These custom-designed pistons address the challenge of bore centerline misalignment inherent in this configuration, featuring valve reliefs large enough to accommodate valves in both misaligned and aligned bores. Each set includes four pistons, complete with wrist pins, locks, and premium rings. CP Pistons are renowned for their quality, utilizing the same alloys, machinery, and finishing processes across all applications, from stock replacements to professional race engines. These custom pistons offer extensive personalization options, including finish bore size, deck height, dish or dome volume, pin diameter and wall thickness, coatings, crank stroke, and rod length. The accompanying gas-nitrited rings are engineered from materials identical to the original factory rings, ensuring exceptional durability and longevity, a significant improvement over many aftermarket alternatives. Key features designed to enhance performance and reliability include balancing to +/- 1 gram, radiused valve reliefs, pin fitting, and full CNC machining. Additionally, they incorporate pick lock grooves and accumulator grooves for improved ring seal and reduced flutter. Dual forced pin oilers are also integrated to ensure optimal lubrication of the wrist pins. CP-Carrillo emphasizes adhering to their precise specifications during block machining to avoid potential issues arising from generic machine shop recommendations. The lead time for custom Volvo sets is approximately 4 weeks, with custom pistons generally requiring up to a 10-week delay for design and machining.
