1-6827-4075 / 2-6827-4075 / 3-6827-4075 / K1-6827-4075 / K2-6827-4075 / K3-6827-4075
Overview:
The DSS Racing +4cc Dome Top Forged Piston Set is engineered specifically for the 6.1L Gen III Mopar Hemi engines found in Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram SRT8 models. Designed to replace factory pistons, this set offers enhanced durability and performance for enthusiasts seeking to maximize their engine’s potential. The +4cc dome top design increases compression ratios, improving combustion efficiency and power output without compromising reliability.
Ideal for high-performance street and track applications, these pistons provide a solid foundation for engine builds that demand strength and precision. Whether upgrading a stock engine or assembling a custom build, DSS Racing pistons deliver consistent quality and fitment tailored to the 6.1L Hemi platform.
Key Features:
These forged pistons incorporate advanced design elements to ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- +4cc dome top for increased compression and improved combustion
- Compatible with 373 Small Block Mopar Hemi Gen III engines
- Pin diameter of .984" with options for full-floating or press-fit configurations
- Ring groove dimensions: 1.2mm top and second rings, 3mm oil ring
- Comp height of 1.21 inches for precise piston-to-head clearance
- Stroke compatibility of 3.578 inches and connecting rod length of 6.243 inches
- Available in multiple compression ratios to suit different build requirements (approximate ratios: 65cc-12.74, 74cc-10.73, 85cc-9.54)
- Manufactured by DSS Racing, known for high-quality forged components
Construction & Design:
Crafted from premium forged aluminum alloy, these pistons are built to withstand the rigors of high-performance engines. The forging process enhances the metal’s grain structure, resulting in superior strength and resistance to thermal and mechanical stress compared to cast pistons. The dome top design not only increases compression but also optimizes combustion chamber shape for efficient flame propagation.
Each piston features precision-machined ring grooves and pin bores to ensure tight tolerances and reliable sealing under extreme conditions. The option for full-floating or press-fit wrist pins allows customization based on engine build preferences and durability needs.
Installation & Fitment:
Designed as a direct fit replacement for the 6.1L Gen III Mopar Hemi engines in Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram SRT8 vehicles, these pistons require no major modifications for installation. Proper ring end gap and piston-to-wall clearance should be verified during assembly to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Professional installation is recommended to maintain engine integrity and achieve the best results.
What's Included:
- Set of forged +4cc dome top pistons (quantity as required for engine)
- Wrist pins (full-floating or press-fit options depending on SKU)
- Precision-machined piston rings compatible with specified groove dimensions
- Installation instructions and technical specifications
Ideal For:
This piston set is ideal for automotive enthusiasts, engine builders, and performance tuners working on 6.1L Gen III Mopar Hemi engines who seek to increase compression and durability. It suits street performance upgrades, track racing builds, and custom engine projects requiring reliable forged components engineered for high stress and power output.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
