Detroit 60 Series Piston Upgrade: Friction-Welded vs. OE Aluminum

In this video, we take a close look at the piston options for the Detroit 60 Series PLG kit—comparing the original OE-style aluminum piston with IPD’s upgraded friction-welded steel design.

You’ll learn:

-Why aluminum pistons may fall short in today’s high-demand engines

-How friction-welded pistons handle higher loads, heat, and emissions

-What makes IPD’s design a strong choice for durability and performance

This upgrade is designed for modern on-highway demands—and it’s backed by a 2-year, unlimited miles warranty.
