Chrysler HEMI 6.1L 4.060in Bore Engine

597060CE-8

Overview:

The Manley Performance Platinum Series Piston Set is engineered specifically for the Chrysler HEMI 6.1L engine with a 4.060-inch bore. Designed for professional engine builders and serious enthusiasts, these pistons deliver exceptional strength, durability, and performance for high-output applications.

Whether you are building a high-performance street engine or a race-ready powerplant, this piston set offers the reliability and precision needed to withstand demanding conditions. You’ll benefit from advanced materials and design features that help optimize combustion efficiency and engine longevity.

Key Features:

These pistons incorporate advanced technology and premium materials to ensure superior performance and durability:

• Forged from 2618 aluminum alloy, known for excellent strength and fatigue resistance under high stress.
• Proven cam and barrel skirt profiles reduce friction and wear for improved efficiency and longevity.
• Tool steel wrist pins provide enhanced strength and durability in the piston-pin connection.
• Molybdenum skirt coatings on select part numbers reduce friction and improve piston ring seal.
• 1.220-inch compression height designed for optimal piston-to-cylinder fitment and performance.
• 11.5cc dish volume to accommodate specific combustion chamber requirements and compression ratios.
• Precision machining and tight tolerances ensure consistent fit and reliable operation.
• Designed for use in high-performance and rebuilt Chrysler HEMI 6.1L engines requiring a 4.060-inch bore piston.

Construction & Design:

The Platinum Series pistons are crafted from premium 2618 forged aluminum alloy, a material favored in high-performance engine builds for its superior strength and thermal stability. The forging process enhances grain structure, resulting in pistons that resist cracking and deformation under extreme conditions.

Manley’s attention to detail is evident in the cam and barrel skirt profiles, which are optimized to reduce friction and wear during operation. The moly skirt coating further minimizes friction between the piston and cylinder wall, contributing to smoother engine operation and reduced heat generation.

Each piston features a dished crown design with a precise -11.5cc volume, tailored to achieve the desired compression ratio and combustion characteristics for the 6.1L HEMI engine. The tool steel wrist pins add strength to the piston-pin assembly, ensuring durability during high-RPM and high-load conditions.

Installation & Fitment:

This piston set is designed as a direct fit for Chrysler HEMI 6.1L engines with a 4.060-inch bore. It is intended for professional engine builders and experienced enthusiasts performing engine rebuilds or upgrades.

Proper machining and clearances should be verified during installation to ensure optimal performance and longevity. No special modifications beyond standard engine assembly procedures are required.
