KB PERFORMANCE PISTONS
The Keith Black 390 Hypereutectic alloy is cast in a permanent steel mold
which makes it possible to build a light weight piston that makes more power and
uses less fuel and lasts longer than any other type of piston being made today.
We can now forget about running loose, noisy, oil-burning pistons. The low heat
transfer of the alloy keeps the skir ts cool so piston expansion is minimal. Test
engines have run with as little as .0005" (1/2 thousandth) piston-to-wall clearance.
The combination of a low heat transfer piston alloy and high compression ring
placement increases power and economy. The high ring placement alone
reduces detonation and increases the top ring temperature. It is important to see
our ring end gap instructions to avoid ring butting.
The KB piston will make maximum power at 2 to 4 degrees less total timing than conventional pistons.
All KB piston sets are supplied with Hastings Moly Ring sets. Safe top ring end gaps can be found by
multiplying the bore diameter by the appropriate ring end gap factor from the adjoining chart.
Example: 3.5" bore Street Normally Aspirated" = 3.5" bore x .0065" = .023" top ring end gap.
Note: Second ring end gaps do not need extra clearance
