Wiseco RED Series Ford Small Block 4.060in Bore 1.600in 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 pistons; they're forged from 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its high tensile strength, which is exactly what you need when you're pushing an engine hard, especially with power adders like turbos or superchargers. The Race Engineered Design (RED) process means these pistons are specifically optimized for popular domestic V8 platforms, making them a cornerstone for everything from drag racing to circle track applications.

Wiseco puts a lot of thought into the details that make a difference in longevity and performance. You'll find horizontal slot oiling in the pin bores, which is crucial for keeping the wrist pin and the small end of the connecting rod properly lubricated under extreme conditions. This helps ensure a long service life for these critical components. The dedicated forgings allow for an engine-specific strutted design, which means Wiseco engineers can maximize the strength-to-weight ratio, getting you more power without unnecessary mass. Plus, the ArmorGlide skirt coating is a nice touch; it's there to reduce friction and noise, which also helps cut down on skirt and cylinder wear. Each set comes complete with premium rings, so you don't have to hunt for compatible ones, and an accumulator groove is included to help maintain consistent ring seal and power delivery.

This set is designed for a 4.060-inch bore with a 1.600-inch compression height and a -5.00cc dish volume. Keep in mind that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. They are manufactured in the USA.
