597080CE-8

Overview:

The Manley Performance Platinum Series Extreme Duty Pistons are precision-engineered components designed specifically for Chrysler HEMI 6.1L engines with a 4.080-inch bore and 3.579-inch stroke. These pistons are crafted to meet the demands of high-performance builds, offering exceptional strength and durability for enthusiasts and professional engine builders alike.

Whether you are building a street performance engine, a race motor, or a high-output rebuild, these pistons provide the reliability and performance needed to withstand extreme conditions. You’ll benefit from improved engine longevity and consistent power delivery, making them an ideal choice for serious tuners and racers.

Key Features:

Manley’s Platinum Series pistons incorporate advanced materials and design features to ensure superior performance and durability:

• Constructed from 2618 alloy forgings, known for excellent strength and fatigue resistance under high stress.
• Proven cam and barrel skirt profiles reduce friction and wear for smoother operation and longer service life.
• Equipped with tool steel wrist pins for enhanced strength and reliability in demanding applications.
• Moly skirt coatings on select part numbers reduce friction and improve piston-to-cylinder wall interaction.
• 11.5cc dished piston design optimizes combustion chamber volume for desired compression ratios.
• Precision machining ensures tight tolerances and consistent fitment for reliable engine assembly.
• Designed to withstand extreme duty cycles, including high RPM and boost conditions.

Construction & Design:

These pistons are forged from premium 2618 aluminum alloy, a material favored in high-performance applications for its toughness and ability to handle elevated temperatures. The forging process enhances grain structure, providing superior strength compared to cast pistons.

The pistons feature carefully engineered cam and barrel skirt profiles that minimize friction and wear, contributing to improved efficiency and longevity. Tool steel wrist pins add robustness to the piston-pin connection, critical for handling the stresses of aggressive driving and racing.

The moly skirt coating applied on select pistons further reduces friction between the piston skirts and cylinder walls, helping to prevent scuffing and extending engine life. The -11.5cc dish design allows for precise control over compression ratio, supporting various tuning goals.

Installation & Fitment:

This piston set is designed for Chrysler HEMI 6.1L engines with a 4.080-inch bore and 3.579-inch stroke. It is intended for professional engine builders and experienced enthusiasts who are upgrading or rebuilding their engines for enhanced performance and durability.

Proper installation requires standard engine assembly procedures and attention to detail to ensure optimal performance and reliability. These pistons are compatible with existing engine components designed for this bore and stroke combination.
