Mahle 85.5mm piston to wall clearance?

I got new pistons for my engine and they didn't come with any spec sheets besides the ring gaps. I tried contacting mahle directly but I got no response. Do any of you guys know what the piston to wall clearance should be? mit367366i13 is the model # 4042 forged aluminum alloy

Here is a link to JE's recommendation on PTW for their 4032 pistons.
