Forged Duramax PistonsNow available from TTS, these forged pistons are designed for high-performance use in diesel competition engines that are subjected to extreme cylinder pressures. Due to their forged construction (production Duaramax pistons are cast-aluminum), the TTS pistons have no oil-cooling galley. Instead, they are plated (not coated) with a heat-rejecting substance called Black Magic that was designed for the aerospace industry. The pistons are available in two different compression ratios (15:1 and 17:1), and five different bore sizes: stock, 0.010-inch overbore, 0.020-inch overbore, 0.030-inch overbore, and 0.040-inch overbore. Custom bore sizes, compression ratios, as well as stroker pistons, are also available by special order.

Keeping It CoolFlex-a-lite's universal radiator and fan combination makes it easy to replace your factory radiator and belt-driven steel clutch fan assembly. The twin electric fan allows for less power loss from your engine and improved fuel economy. According to Flex-a-lite, its radiator provides 300 percent more surface area than a factory unit, which helps dissipate heat faster and more efficiently. The system utilizes two 12 1/8-inch fans and comes with an electronic control unit that regulates fan output from 20 to 100 percent airflow, depending on coolant temperatures and A/C use.
