Product Details

The Wiseco 6492B100 is a Professional Series forged racing piston engineered for Chevrolet Big Block applications running a 4.600 in. bore. Constructed from 2618 aluminum alloy for superior tensile strength and heat resistance, this piston is purpose-built for heavy to severe duty race builds where reliability and maximum power output are non-negotiable. It is designed for engines with a 9.750 in. deck height and features a 12–14 degree solid dome crown profile optimized for high-compression, power-adder applications.

Key Specifications:

  • Bore: 4.600 in.
  • Compression Height: 1.065 in.
  • Pin Diameter: 0.990 in. — Includes wrist pin S462
  • Deck Height: 9.750 in.
  • Crown: 12–14 degree solid dome (Quick 8 Series)
  • Material: 2618 forged aluminum alloy
  • Sold individually (replacement/single piston)
  • Recommended ring set: W77008-4600-5 (rings sold separately)

Performance Features:

  • Gas Ported Crown: Gas porting improves ring seal under extreme combustion pressures, reducing blowby and maintaining consistent power delivery at high RPM.
  • Nitrous Compatible: Engineered to withstand the thermal and mechanical stress of nitrous oxide injection.
  • Strutted Skirt: Internal strut construction controls thermal expansion for a tighter, more consistent piston-to-wall clearance across a wide temperature range.
  • Optimized Valve Pockets: Deep, precision-machined valve reliefs accommodate oversized valves and aggressive high-lift camshafts while maximizing flow efficiency.
  • Dome Geometry: Crown shape is designed to promote optimal quench during the compression/combustion cycle, resisting detonation and pre-ignition for longer engine life and increased horsepower potential.
  • Precision Ring Grooves: Machined to exacting tolerances with correct orifice and accumulator volumes, delivering excellent ring seal, minimal blowby, and reduced oil consumption.
  • ISO-Certified Forging Facility: Manufactured in the USA using advanced materials, complex forged shapes, and feature-aligned grain flow technology for maximum strength-to-weight ratio.

ArmorGlide® Skirt Coating:
Wiseco's proprietary ArmorGlide® skirt coating is a high-performance dry film lubricant validated through in-house dyno testing. It reduces friction, improves wear resistance, and allows the piston to be fitted tighter within the bore than an uncoated piston. The result is reduced piston rock noise, a better ring seal, and more of the engine's power reaching the wheels.

Professional Series pistons from Wiseco are engineered, forged, and machined in the USA — delivering the custom-level performance and durability demanded by serious racers and engine builders.

My son lives about 1500 miles from me. He had asked me to get him an Industries SuperFlow Hi-Volume Air Compressor for Christmas. <br>With a couple of click on my computer, the compressor was ordered to be shipped to him and was paid for. He had the exact compressor he requested within five days.(and that included the weekend)<br>One word sums up my experience---EASY

Best prices, fast shipping, and product as described. I would definitely recommend Autoplicity.

Fast and Simple, great prices!!

I had a great experience ordering my springs through Autoplicity. I received instant notification of my order as it was placed. I was very happy to see shipping information so quickly after the order was placed, also. Last, but not least, I received the springs SO FAST! Best price, instant notification of order status, fastest shipping, therefore best review that I can write! Thanks, Autoplicity, I will be a return customer if I need anything else!

Awesome price. Nice site layout.

Fast shipping even around the holidays and the cheapest price I could find on my Thule t2 bike rack I would buy here again
