JE Piston Asymmetrical Pistons
Designed specifically for high cylinder pressure applications, these new JE pistons feature an asymmetrical skirt design to better accommodate higher piston side skirt loads. The wide skirt area on the major thrust face of the asymmetrical piston increases "bearing area" during combustion to better handle side loads related to big power/torque production, increased stroke, and decreased rod ratios, while the narrow skirt area on the minor thrust side helps to reduce friction. The result is a high strength, lightweight piston that significantly improves engine longevity, increases power/torque output, and reduces friction.
