  • Piston to Cylinder Clearance?

    Bentley doesn't give a spec for any of the piston to cylinder wall clearance, just seeing if anyone had more knowledge to this than myself. Im basing my estimate of 0.0035-0.0040 off of the fact that brand new the clearance would measure 0.0018, and towards the edge of the wear limit being almost 0.0065 with the largest allowable bore size and min piston size; so meet in the middle.
