Product Details

The Wiseco 6120A3 is a Professional Series forged racing piston engineered for the Ford 2300/2.3L four-cylinder engine. Forged from 2618 aluminum alloy and precision-machined in the USA, this individual replacement piston is built to handle heavy to severe-duty race applications with no compromises in durability or performance.

Featuring a 3.810 in. bore, 1.590 in. compression height, and a 0.912 in. pin diameter, this flat-top piston is purpose-built for stroker combinations targeting maximum compression efficiency. The slipper skirt design reduces reciprocating weight and minimizes friction within the bore. Wrist pin S489 is included. Recommended ring set is 3810A (sold separately, quantity 4 required). Must be used with a K1 connecting rod.

Key Specifications:

  • Bore: 3.810 in.
  • Compression Height: 1.590 in.
  • Stroke: 3.126 in.
  • Rod Length: 5.205 in.
  • Pin Diameter: 0.912 in. (Pin Part #: S489, included)
  • Dome Volume: -3.4cc (flat top)
  • Piston Weight: 393g avg.
  • Ring Grooves: 1/16 x 1/16 x 3/16
  • Skirt Type: Slipper
  • Compression Ratio (42cc chamber): 11.4:1
  • Compression Ratio (46cc chamber): 10.7:1
  • Compression Ratio (50cc chamber): 10.1:1
  • Recommended Ring Set: 3810A (sold separately, qty. 4)
  • Required Rod: K1
  • Sold as: Individual/Replacement Piston

Key Features:

  • 2618 Forged Aluminum Alloy — Superior tensile strength and heat resistance ideal for high-output and forced-induction applications
  • ArmorGlide® Skirt Coating — Proprietary friction-reducing coating that allows tighter bore fitment, minimizes piston rock, reduces noise, and improves wear resistance
  • Precision-Machined Ring Grooves — Calculated groove root diameters and axial widths deliver maximum ring seal and minimize blow-by and oil consumption
  • Slipper Skirt Design — Reduces reciprocating mass and power-robbing friction while maintaining stability in the bore for optimal ring seal
  • Optimized Crown and Valve Pocket Geometry — Promotes intake charge efficiency and accommodates oversized valves and high-lift camshafts
  • ISO-Certified Forging Facility — Engineered and manufactured in the USA using advanced grain-flow-aligned forging technology

Wiseco's Professional Series pistons are the choice of serious racers and engine builders demanding race-proven performance in every build. Whether for road racing, circle track, or high-performance street use, the 6120A3 delivers the precision and durability required to push the Ford 2.3L platform to its limits.

great pricing and received my purchase quickly. the box was a bit torn up, but the contents were fine.

Lowest price I can find! Sent tracking number via FedEx without trouble! Would recommend!

Easy transaction, great price.

I'm a stickler for finding the best prices on my purchases, while also making sure that the products I buy are legit and not some cheapo knock-offs.<br>I did my homework on the Clutch Stage 2 kit I wanted for my Spec V and found that Autoplicity had the best price anywhere, even a spot where I had 10% off came out to be more expensive.<br><br>I received my Clutch Stage 2 clutch kit pretty quickly (about 1 week) and everything was as expected.<br><br>Overall I would rate Autoplicity a perfect 10, although I did not have to contact their customer service or initiate a return, so the '10' would be on product selection, communication, website experience, and overall feeling that I got the best deal out there.<br><br>Thanks!

Autoplicity had the lowest price online for the product I needed. I will definitely buy from them again.

Great website and the ordering was easy too. I like the way they show the full price including shipping and tax. Got the confirmation immediately and the shipment notification the next business day. <br>

Very easy to order on line and excellent communication, very good price.

Great seller! good communication between autoplicity and buyer!<br>Also very quick to process and send out product! Got order within 6 days standard shipping! Will purchase from again!!
