Wiseco RED Series Ford Small Block 4.060in Bore 1.280in CH -5.00 CC Piston Set

If you're building a high-performance Ford Small Block engine for serious racing, the Wiseco RED Series pistons are a solid choice. These aren't your average replacement pistons; they're built from the ground up using Race Engineered Design (RED) principles to handle the extreme demands of drag racing, circle track, and other power-adder applications. They're forged from 2618 aluminum, a material known for its tensile strength, which is crucial when you're pushing an engine hard.

Wiseco puts a lot of thought into the details that make a difference in a race engine. You'll find horizontal slot oiling in the pin bores, which helps keep the wrist pins and connecting rod small ends properly lubricated, extending their service life. The pistons themselves use dedicated forgings with a strutted design, meaning they're optimized for strength without adding unnecessary weight. To further reduce friction and wear, the skirts are coated with ArmorGlide, which also helps quiet things down. Plus, each set comes complete with premium rings, so you don't have to hunt for compatible ones.

These pistons also feature an accumulator groove, designed to help maintain consistent ring seal and ensure you're getting the most power out of every combustion cycle. Keep in mind that these are intended for performance builds and are not CARB approved, so they cannot be shipped to California. If you're serious about getting the most out of your Ford Small Block, this set is built to perform.
