What material are these Manley pistons made from?

These Manley Platinum Series pistons are forged from domestic 2618 alloy. This material is chosen for its superior strength and performance characteristics, making it well-suited for high-performance engine builds.

What is the purpose of the moly skirt coating?

The moly skirt coating on these pistons helps to reduce friction between the piston skirt and the cylinder wall. This can lead to improved engine efficiency and reduced wear over time, especially in demanding applications.

Are these pistons compatible with all LS engine variants?

These pistons are specifically designed for Chevy LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, and LS7 series engines with a 4.08-inch bore. While they cover a range of popular LS platforms, it's always best to confirm the specific bore size and compression distance requirements for your particular engine build.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the heart of your Chevy LS engine, whether it's an LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, or LS7, you need pistons that can handle the power and stress of performance builds. These Manley Platinum Series pistons are built for that job. They feature a -29cc dish, a 4.08-inch bore, and a 1.115-inch compression distance, making them a solid choice for many high-performance LS applications.

Manley uses domestic 2618 alloy forgings for these pistons, which means they are strong and built to perform under demanding conditions. The pistons also come with tool steel wrist pins and a moly skirt coating to help reduce friction and wear on your cylinder walls. You'll also appreciate the precise ring lands and grooves, which are machined to strict standards to ensure a better seal for your piston rings, ultimately leading to more power. The cam and barrel skirt profiles are designed to be effective at generating power while also being gentle on the cylinder walls, a balance that's crucial for engine longevity.

Manley's unique manufacturing process allows them to machine the skirt and ring grooves in a single operation. This ensures the ring grooves are perfectly square to the skirt, which is important for proper ring seal and overall engine performance. These pistons are a popular choice among professional engine builders and tuners who demand reliability and performance from their builds. Keep in mind that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
