Wiseco Professional Series Forged Pistons

Chrysler 5.7L 3rd Gen HEMI V8

K0036XS

Overview:

The Wiseco Professional Series forged pistons are engineered for serious racers and high-performance builders who demand uncompromising strength and durability. Designed specifically for the Chrysler 5.7L 3rd Generation HEMI engine, these pistons deliver the reliability and performance needed in heavy to severe duty race applications.

Whether you are building a dedicated race engine or a high-output street machine, these pistons provide a solid foundation to support increased power and aggressive tuning. With premium rings included, you’ll get a complete piston set that helps maximize engine efficiency and longevity under extreme conditions.

Key Features:

These pistons incorporate advanced design and manufacturing techniques to meet the rigorous demands of motorsport and high-performance builds:

• Forged from high-strength aluminum alloy for superior durability and resistance to thermal and mechanical stress.
• 10cc reverse dome (R/Dome) design to optimize combustion chamber volume and compression ratio.
• Compression height of 1.205 inches, tailored for precise piston-to-deck clearance and optimal ring seal.
• Pin diameter of 0.927 inches, engineered for compatibility with factory or aftermarket connecting rods.
• Set of 8 pistons, matching bore size of 3.917 inches for the Chrysler 5.7L HEMI bore specification.
• Includes premium piston rings designed to maintain excellent sealing and reduce blow-by under high load.
• Professional Series pistons are built with race-level quality control and attention to detail.
• Ideal for heavy-duty racing, drag, circle track, and other severe duty engine builds.

Construction & Design:

Wiseco’s Professional Series pistons are manufactured using advanced forging processes that enhance grain structure and mechanical properties. The reverse dome piston crown design improves combustion efficiency by optimizing flame travel and reducing detonation risk. Precision machining ensures tight tolerances for compression height and pin fitment, critical for maintaining engine balance and performance.

The pistons are engineered to withstand the extreme temperatures and pressures found in high-boost and high-RPM applications, making them a reliable choice for serious engine builders.

Installation & Fitment:

This piston set is designed as a direct fit for Chrysler 5.7L 3rd Gen HEMI engines with a 3.917-inch bore. Installation requires standard engine assembly procedures and is compatible with factory or aftermarket rods matching the specified pin diameter.

No modifications to the engine block or rods are typically necessary when using these pistons, but professional installation and proper engine blueprinting are recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

What's Included:

• Set of 8 forged pistons with -10cc reverse dome design
