About this part

Product Details

Manley's 2618 alloy forgings are a key reason professional engine builders trust these pistons for serious performance builds. This set is specifically for Chevrolet Small Block engines, featuring a 4.045-inch bore size, a 1.550-inch compression height, and a -4.00cc valve relief. The 2618 alloy is known for its strength and ability to handle high performance demands without cracking or failing under stress.

Beyond the strong forging, Manley incorporates proven cam and barrel skirt profiles. These profiles are designed to reduce friction and wear on your cylinder walls, which helps maintain power output over time and extends the life of your engine components. The pistons also feature exacting standards for ring lands and grooves, which is critical for achieving a good seal with your piston rings. A tight seal means better compression and more power getting to the crankshaft. Each set includes premium chrome moly wrist pins, known for their durability in high-stress applications.

Manley's unique manufacturing process allows them to machine the skirt and cut the ring grooves in a single operation. This ensures that the ring grooves are perfectly square to the piston skirt, which further contributes to a solid ring seal and optimal engine performance. If you're building a high-performance Chevrolet Small Block, these pistons offer a well-built foundation for your project.
