• 1.090-inch compression height optimized for proper piston-to-crankshaft clearance and combustion efficiency.
• 0.927-inch pin diameter for robust wrist pin support and reduced piston rocking.
• 18.0 cc dome volume to enhance compression ratio and combustion chamber shape for improved power output.
• Designed for use in heavy to severe duty race builds, providing excellent resistance to heat and mechanical stress.
• Supplied as a complete set of eight pistons with premium piston rings included for immediate installation.
• Engineered to maintain tight tolerances for consistent performance and long-term reliability.

Construction & Design:

These pistons are crafted using Wiseco’s advanced forging process, which produces a dense, uniform grain structure that enhances strength and fatigue resistance. The forged aluminum alloy construction offers a lightweight yet robust solution, reducing reciprocating mass and improving engine responsiveness. The dome design with a -18.0 cc volume is carefully shaped to optimize combustion efficiency and support higher compression ratios without compromising detonation resistance.

Each piston features a precision-machined pin bore and skirt profile to minimize friction and wear, contributing to smoother operation and extended engine life. The Professional Series pistons are engineered to exacting standards to ensure perfect fitment within the Chrysler 6.1L Gen III HEMI block, facilitating straightforward installation and reliable performance.

Installation & Fitment:

This piston set is designed specifically for the Chrysler 6.1L 3rd generation HEMI small block engine, ensuring direct compatibility with factory components. The pistons fit a 4.060-inch bore and are intended for use with a 4.050-inch stroke crankshaft. Installation requires standard engine assembly procedures and attention to ring end gap and piston orientation.

No modifications to the engine block or other components are necessary when installing these pistons, provided the engine is prepared to the specified bore and stroke dimensions. Professional engine building experience is recommended to ensure optimal results.
