Asking for advice on piston wall clearance with this little information is about like asking which girl is the cutest -- Mary, Jane, Sue, or Katy? Hard to give a useful answer with that little to go on...

DTM, I sure was not criticizing you. Just pointing out that the question was so vague that any answers would not be useful.
