Design and Manufacturing

BRC Performance skirts are designed to provide more stability in the bore by spreading the thrust load. This decreases flex in the cylinder and improves the ring seal, thus increasing horsepower. Our designs include internal pin oil holes that ensure lubrication of the wrist pin and bosses.

Most BRC stock pistons are complete except for the skirt. We finish your order with the bore you specify. This allows engine builders to get stock prices and delivery times even for custom bore sizes!

Quick Turnaround
Our computer-aided design and advanced CNC technology permit manufacture and shipment of custom designed pistons quickly and efficiently.

Our policy is to ship stock orders the same day, if received by 10 AM Eastern time; the next day, if received after 10 AM.
