With a larger piston to wall clearance, yes.

Depends on the piston, but, generally, yes... Pistons for FI motors are designed to be subjected to a lot of heat, so the piston has a lot of taper too it, smaller diameter at the top then the bottom.

Too much piston to bore clearance.
Have you measured it?

About 0.008 inch?

That sound will be a different problem.

That sounds like the top end to me.....cams or rockers.
