Features

  • Accumulator Groove: A specialty groove between the top and second ring provides added volume for blow-by gases. This helps reduce pressure between the rings, improving top ring seal and minimizing ring flutter at high cylinder pressures.
  • Designed specifically for Chevrolet Big Block Engines To provide optimized performance durability
  • Double Pin Oilers: Deliver twice the amount of oil to the wrist pin as compared to the standard single pin oiler.
  • Forged in the USA using 2618 aluminum, yielding high tensile strength needed for high-demand performance applications
  • Includes high-quality wrist pins, and locks
  • Made 100% in the USA
  • Pin Fit: The pin bore is precision honed to attain an exact pin clearance. Clearances typically range from .0003 to .0010 between the wrist pin and pin bore.
  • Proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) forging design minimizes friction and power loss with reduced skirt width and saves additional weight with a shorter wrist pin
  • Smooth Crown Finish: Deburs all areas around the valve pocket and dome area, to reduces stress risers and prevent hot spots.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only. If you’re unsure about what’s included with this product, please contact our team for clarification.
