Re: G80CS piston
Cor, look at that.
Now tell us you turned it up while watching Neighbors on the telly.
Seriously, that's a nice looking piece of kit. What's that finish on the dome?

It does look very smart. Who is the manufacturer?

Re: G80CS piston
Looks like a PML type from the US. Ceramic coating. I fitted one last year. Follow & read the bore clearance instructions very carefully.

Re: G80CS piston
A PML it is 😊
Ceramic coated crown to reduce the heat transfer.
The whole piston top enters the head... u can see the squish band around the outside of it.
Odd design... BIG heat loss into the piston. But seemed like a good idea at the time
