Default Re: piston clearance

Well after you said that I went back and checked and found they are forged steel h beam Rods, so It seems I had a Senior moment LOL Its been two years since I built the motor, not sure where I got the idea they were aluminum, LOL
So to be clear I am looking for .045-.050 total clearance between the piston and head including the head gasket correct?
