How much spray have you ran on the Wiesco K447X3 4.030 or other bore +12cc wiesco pistons?

The pistons aren't an issue, but the standard pins flex a bit with a 300 shot. If you are running that, you should upgrade to the S718 .200 wall toolsteel pins.

I had a brand new LSX 427 with wiseco pistons built 2013 and after less 100 miles could not tune or get the power.
Found the WISECO pistons cracking from the skirts upward!!
Our shop also found the same problem on a vette they just rebuilt with the same wiseco pistons.
In the end we wasted months of trying to tune and trouble shoot the problem.
Pull and tear down the engine and rebuild. I am out of pocket a few thousand for time and tuning, the shop is our of pocket for hours of trouble shooting and the engine builder is out of pocket for time to rebuild.

What did WISECO do? - gave us 8 new pistons.

I wrote a letter to the head wiseco man letting him know I dont like to bash on forums and asked for him to help the engine builder and tuner. I didnt ask for a dime for me.

Todate - WISECO still sucks

Look for a big WISUCKO sticker being produced soon.
