    My std pistons are different to that, just been going thru my old pics from the engine rebuild/head gasket failure years ago. If you zoom in on the far right piston, there are no KS markings. My car has never had an engine change/rebuild prior to my ownership.

    So I can only assume these are Mahle pistons??

        Is that original piston or new Mahle piston? MArkings are different to that of my original ones.

            Interesting Tom. They sure look like the same design, and all the other markings look the same. Are you sure there is no KS logo below the arrow?
