Default Re: model B piston clearance in the block

Regarding the quote from nkaminar in Post #7: "For pistons that are ground round (don't use these) the clearance is greater, perhaps 0.010"

I wonder what is wrong with concentric ground pistons? I know it is old technology but I have pulled this type of piston from old engines that had an apparently long and useful life. These were also split skirt pistons which were set up much tighter than the 0.010 inches cited.
