destroy your freshly rebuilt motor.

DON’T rebuild that engine with 50-60 year old pistons!

WHY REPLACE THOSE PISTONS?

1. This will probably be the last time you ever rebuild that engine so use all the best parts.

2. CLARK pistons have been upgraded to the latest materials and manufacturing methods.

Wrist pin fit is PERFECT – size & weight are matched exactly and there are no sharp edges/rough casting.

3. Old pistons can fatigue and crack (usually NOT even visible) if the piston top comes off just one old piston

it makes a major, expensive mess!

4. OIL RETENTION GROOVES: These grooves on the sides of quality pistons help to keep a film of oil

between the piston and cylinder wall. Especially important when starting. Old pistons are often worn,

scuffed and scratched. The oil grooves can’t possibly do their job.

5. PISTON RING LANDING WEAR: This can prevent the rings from moving and sealing correctly.

Do it right! Upgrade your pistons to current materials and technology.

CLARK pistons!
