Piston And Connecting Rod
The pistons are made of a high strength aluminum alloy with an anodized top ring groove. Piston skirts are coated with a solid lubricant for scuff
resistance.
The connecting rods are made of powdered metal with a "fractured cap" design. The connecting rod attaches to the piston with a full floating pin retained
by lock rings. The piston and connecting rod are serviced as an assembly (Fig. 65).
