SPEED PRO Forged Coated Skirt Dished Pistons Set/8+CAST Rings for Buick 455 030

This item is for eight (8) .030-in. over bore Speed Pro (Sealed Power) forged coated skirt pistons and a cast piston ring set (Hastings/MAHLE) for 1970-1976 Buick 455ci big block V-8 engines. P/N (8) L2353AF-030 + 50449-030. These pistons are Speed Pro's forged version of the higher compression 1970 year model pistons but can be used as a performance upgrade in other engines.

Speed Pro forged pistons are made from extruded VMS-75 aluminum alloy that is forged under 3,000 tons of pressure to "near-net" shape. After that, they are machined to their final configuration. These pistons offer excellent strength and durability and are capable of taking the punishment that is dished out on the street and in competition.
