Default Stroker Wiseco Pistons!!!!!!

I just received my Wiseco Pro Tru .30 over, -5.4cc, 5.7rod, 3.75 stroke Pistons! Forged in America! 436 Gram weight and tight clearances paired to Hastings' ring kit from them. Almost to pretty to hide away in a cylinder....
What do you think?

Nice! I bought Wiseco's too. Are you sure about the weight though? I suspect they're more like 463g -- with 5.7 rods anyway.

No, 436! I just checked. That is without the pin bearing and clips. The valve reliefs are really deep though. Kind of makes me wonder if I will still get my compression in the elevens.

$583.93 for the complete set of rings, pins, and pistons. A little pricey I know but with forged, moly armor on the skirt, and the quality machining I witnessed last night in the light watching the winter olympics opener. It is well worth it. They also have K1 rods and stroker cranks available too. I opted to get an unbobweighted forged crank to have a rotaiting assembly balanced.

I used my digital scale that I bought to measure out deer meat with for deer jerky! I guess it's on. The tax and interest was paid on the credit I used to by them, believe me!

That's kick-azz light! I didn't know Wiseco made them as light as SRP --who also makes a 5.7 piston in the 430's. The 6.0" pistons are under 400g.

My ProTru Wiseco's are heavier. Must be the dish pistons have more weight due to the "rim".
