Product Details

Wiseco is well-known for making strong, reliable forged pistons for performance applications. This RED? series piston kit is built specifically for Chevrolet LS engines, offering the kind of strength and precision machining that serious racers and builders demand. Whether you're hitting the drag strip or the circle track, these pistons are designed to handle the rigors of high-performance V8 platforms.

These pistons are forged and machined in the USA from 2618 aluminum, chosen for its high tensile strength, which is crucial for racing and engines with power adders. They feature horizontal slot oiling in the pin bores to keep the wrist pins and connecting rod small ends well-lubricated, helping to ensure a long service life. The dedicated forgings allow for an engine-specific strutted design, which maximizes strength while keeping weight down. Plus, the ArmorGlide? skirt coating works to reduce friction and noise, while also minimizing wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls. An accumulator groove is also included to help maintain consistent ring seal and power delivery.

This set includes premium rings, so you won't need to source those separately. Please note that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
