Hello, our company is new to the board. I am posting this to let everyone know what we do here at Diamond Pistons. We are growing pistons manufacture located just outside of Detroit. We have been in business since 1968, manufacturing pistons, pins and other racing products. For some of you who my have delt with Katech in the past for LS1 parts, I am Chris formerly from Katech. I hope that helps the people that know me. I have come over to Diamond Pistons to help grow ther piston market. We are very eager to supply pistons to LS1/LS6 customers as well as any one else who needs pistons. My main experience lies in the LS1 world and that is why we have sponsored this site. Just to let you guy's know we do carry a couple different piston sets for the LS1 in stock. That will be expanding during the year. Also if we do not stock what you are looking for we also do custom pistons. Also we manufacture chromemoly pushrods for the racing industry. If I can be of any help or if you have any questions please feel free to call myself or Ron Beaubien at 586-792-6620. Or you can email me at cgelineau@diamondracing.net or you can email Ron at rbeaubien@diamondracing.net.

Thanks for your time and we look forward to doing business with you.

Thanks,
Chris Gelineau

First off, welcome. It is always great to get more sponsors. Could you give us an idea on how Diamond's pistons compare to the competion? Thanks.

Do you produce custom bore/stroke size pistons? Your prices are right in line with everyone else. I would like to know how yours compare to the rest( JE, Ross, etc.... )?

WNA B LS1 - I would say that we are on par with all of the other forged piston manufactures like JE, CP, and so on. We feel that our sales and tech staff is second to none and that our delivery time is up there with the best. We feel that we can supply you with a quality part on time, no problem. We are very eager to help you and we hope to do business with the people on this forum. Thanks for the question.

Thanks,
Chris

welcome Chris! We spoke this afternoon. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Your pricing looks great compared to others, and I have no doubt that the quality is there. I just might have to try a set out when it's time to rebuild to stock cubic-inches to handle a TNT nitrous kit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Chris,

Thank you for selling us the custom Diamond pistons for our blown CR-5 setup. As you probably know, they have now been coated and we expect huge HP using these pistons. Anyway, the project is on schedule and we hope to run a very low number come November / December.

Good luck with your new responsibilities.

Just wanted to say that I had Diamond pistons in my last 383 LT1 (451rwhp n/a) and my new 357ci blower motor (549rwhp), and they are a top-quality product.

I got both sets of custom pistons very quick, and they were finished very nice (imo nicer than JE's in a side by side comparison).
