Hey guys, I am having probelms here!
I have shortblock here, with CAT H-Beams, and Ross pistons (job 69380).
The lady at Ross looked it up for me and told me that the piston to bore clearance needed to be .005.
Big probelm, mine measured from .007-right at .008 amongst the cylindetrs at the machine shop this morning.
How bad is this? I'd assume pretty bad Seems they'd be slappin around pretty bad.
The block was bored .030 over form what the machine shop said.
I assume another block would have to be machined to match these pistons... Along with all the other expensive block work...
