Wiseco is proud to offer our Ceramic Crown Coating on any custom piston application, but did you know it can also be added to most off-the-shelf piston orders?

Formulated and applied in-house, our ceramic-based thermal barrier coating is designed to reflect heat back into the combustion chamber rather than allowing it to transfer into the piston. By reducing heat absorption through the piston crown, it helps lower temperatures throughout the piston, wrist pin, and connecting rod small end, providing an added layer of protection in demanding performance applications.

Protecting your piston investment should be a priority, call and ask about adding Ceramic Crown Coating to your next piston order.

Some things are worth taking pride in.

This fully custom billet piston started as a solid block of material and was transformed into a precision-engineered performance piston by our team of skilled engineers and machinists.

In a world where cost-cutting and outsourced manufacturing have become the norm, Wiseco is still doing things the hard way, 85 years later. We continue to invest in the best materials, state-of-the-art machining, and 100% American made racing pistons.

Spotted a set of custom double-coated pistons in the 4 Piston Cylinder Heads assembly room for a serious 2.7L all-motor drag racing combination.

These pistons feature a hard anodized coating treatment for an exceptionally durable, abrasion-resistant outer layer, paired with a low-friction skirt coating to help reduce piston-to-wall friction and improve longevity under extreme conditions.

Performance benefits aside, the blacked-out finish definitely earns a few style points as well 🔥🔥

Our Pro Tru Street forged piston line up is one of the industry’s best-kept secrets, built to deliver upgraded piston performance without the premium price tag.

Machined from forged 4032 material, these pistons deliver the ideal balance of strength, stability, and street-friendly durability, designed for pump-gas-friendly combinations up to ~700 horsepower. By forging a near-net dome shape directly
into the piston, we significantly reduce machining time, helping lower cost without compromising quality or performance.

Custom piece for Luke Bogacki Motorsports fresh 648ci motor. We've worked hand in hand with Luke and the guys at Advanced Product Design fine-tune their piston program for their 16-degree Assassin heads. At first glance, these may not look like much, but the precisely machined dome design, combined with a few trick features like our vertical gas ports and custom cam-and-barrel piston profile, makes this the perfect piston for this setup.

Extremely saddened to hear this news today. Kyle was a true cornerstone of street car content, bringing a massive audience into the drag racing and car community. His impact reached far beyond the screen and helped grow the passion for so many. He will be dearly missed.

We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Kyle Loftis, founder of 1320Video and a true pioneer in motorsports media.

Kyle was a longtime friend of Drag Illustrated and someone we had the privilege of working with on multiple occasions over the years. His passion for the sport, his creativity, and his relentless drive to showcase drag racing to the world helped shape the culture in a way that will never be forgotten.

More than anything, Kyle brought energy, kindness, and authenticity everywhere he went. He had a way of connecting people and inspiring those around him, both on and off the track.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and the entire 1320Video community during this incredibly difficult time.
Rest in peace, Kyle.
