Wiseco 6.1 Hemi Pistons
Wiseco 6.1 Hemi pistons are superior high strength forged pistons and are ideal for use in high performance or racing Chrysler and Dodge 6.1L Hemi engines.
Stock OEM Chrysler Dodge 6.1L Hemi Engine Specs for Reference:
- 6.1L 370 cubic inches stock bore size is 4.055 and stock stroke is 3.580
- 6.1 using a 4.080 long stroker crank and stock bore produces 421.5 cubic inches. A 6.1 stroker engine using the 4.08 stroke crank, and a .025 oversize produces 426 cubic inches. This combination is often referred to as the modern 426 Hemi due to the popularity of the original Chrysler 426 Hemi name.
- 6.243 stock connecting rod length
- .984 stock piston pin diameter (Note: The Wiseco pistons on this page require the use of the matching K1 connecting rods as these pistons use either a .927 or .866 diameter wrist pin.)
- Stock engine block deck height is 9.250 inches
Dodge and Chrysler 6.1 Hemi Pistons
Wiseco High Performance Chrysler Dodge 6.1L Hemi Piston Features
- Forged pistons made from high strength 2618 Alloy. Will not shatter like hypereutectic or cast pistons.
- Strong, strutted skirt is specially designed to run at as little as .004” clearance, with excellent skirt wear and
minimal noise or rock.
- Radiused Valve Pockets for detonation resistance and increased flow around valves.
- Anti-detonation Grooves help keep the top ring groove free of carbon.
- 1.2mm Nitride steel top ring, 1.2mm Napier 2nd, and Nitride 3mm oil for reduced
friction for more horsepower.
- Pressure Groove for enhanced ring seal.
- Features Chrome Moly Pins and Spirolox®. (Tool steel pins optional.)
- Brush domes require minimal de burring by the engine builder.
- Wiseco ArmorGlideTM skirt coated for lower friction, reduced noise, and superior life.
Explanation of Wiseco 6.1 Hemi piston specs listed below:
 Bore = Finished cylinder bore size in inches that piston is designed to work in- Stroke = Crankshaft stroke in inches that piston is designed to work with
- Rod = Connecting rod length in inches that piston is made to work with
- CH = Compression Height, also known as compression distance. This is the dimension, in inches, from the centerline of the pin bore to the top deck of the piston
- Wt = weight in grams of one piston
- Pin = pin diameter in inches, all pins 2.250" long
- CCs = cc displacement in total of the valve reliefs, and any dish or dome
- Compression Ratio = static compression ratio comparison of piston when used with different volume cylinder head chambers. Stock 6.1 Hemi heads have a 73cc chamber. 2009 and newer 5.7L heads have a 65cc chamber and are a popular swap for builders wanting a smaller chamber size.
- Piston Ring Set = part number for a complete engine set of plasma moly file fit piston rings, ring widths are 1.2mm, 1.2mm, 3mm. The rings listed here are for use with the Wiseco pistons listed beside them.

For use with Molnar Technologies Gen3 Hemi Crankshafts
|
| Description |
Part # |
This reluctor gear is the correct one to use with Molnar Technologies Gen 3 Hemi stroker cranks in engines requiring a 32 tooth reluctor. It uses a 4 bolt attachment which is the same as the OEM Chrysler 6.1 crankshaft. The 2003 - 2008 5.7 and 6.1 used the 32 tooth wheel. |
MRR-32
$120.99 $104.50
|
|
| If you have a 2009 or newer Gen3 Hemi with a 58 tooth reluctor, this is the correct gear for you. (NOTE: Some people count the teeth on the 2009 and later as 60, but difference is only in how people count the large teeth, so even though some people say 58 and some 60, they are both the same reluctor) |
MRR-60
$120.99 $104.50
|
|
2013 and Newer:
Chrysler / Dodge changed the OEM reluctor and engine management system in 2013. If you are working with a 2013 or newer vehicle then this is the proper 58 tooth reluctor to use. |
