Top Pistons

Our Price $0.74 - $98.50
Flat top piston for improved performance. These pistons are designed to fit the SOHC 12 valve engine in the 240SX(from eng # KA24 012039) and the pickup trucks (from 10-88 only). These pistons increase compression ratio from 8.6:1 to 9.1:1. Trucks (D21) require the connecting rod to be bushed or connecting rod (12100-53F00) as the piston is a full floating style.

Is that for all 4? It does seem too good to be true, but they included part numbers and plenty of info so it seems right to me.

just seems a little odd there mark up on the price thing on the list was $86

and then when you go to check out and buy it adds it up to $52

maybe that was with the most expansive shipping?

It's because they aren't "race" parts, they're just plain jane cast pistons.
Forged pistons are always more expensive, because of the process they go through.
