Piston question, Mahle - 03/10/16 02:02 PM
Hello folks,hoping someone here has used some Mahle SBM460030I28 pistons here. They're a 28cc inverted piston, but I cannot find a picture of the actual piston and I need to know if it's an inverted dome or a full dish, as I've seen them advertised both ways. I'm contemplating a new engine build for my daily driver and it needs to have adequate quench. Anyone know the answer? Thanks in advance.

Full round dish, no D or kidney shape.

Very little quench area, perhaps 1/4 inch all around except the valve notches. Full round dish, no D or kidney is correct. Other than that they are very nice pistons. If you pass you could send me the info.

Thanks guys. Other than the part number above, I don't have any other information.
