Competition Mahle Pistons

[ttammeslehto]

Does anyone know a good source of Mahle pistons to Cummins?

What I also need is a full gasket set, how about Fel-Pro.

Bearings Clevite? Any advise will help.

Stock pistons in the Cummins could be manufactured by Mahle.

I know they have supplied for Cummins in the past.

Dont know about the availability of these currently.



Bearings are currently produced for the B series by Dana/Glacier-Vandervill.

Mahle Inc.

You can call them direct and ask 423-318-3124. Or go to their webpage www.mahleinc.com



Good luck contacting Federal Mogul (Fel-Pro), let me know how you got a hold of them.

Anyone have any experience running these in a high HP application, Just wondering how they take it.

I got my Mahle's from PDR. Great customer service, and good advice on piston selection for the application.

re

Yea I have used thier kits alot,anything I rebuild I use them,As good as or better than cummins,seals,gaskets and bearings. I think you can get the whole kit including pistons for way less than a grand.

yeah i keep the felpro gasket hanging on the wall to show the world what a pos they are, had troubles with autolite glowplugs too, they all tie right back into honey well, and i wont buy an auto lite plug, glow or spark, or any felpro gasket, even if it is a thermostat gasket for my lawnmower.
