I was wondering how much clearance you need? I ran the piston an it did not contact the case but is close about 5mm. see picture .

Purchased very same pistons and cylinders from them almost a year ago, no problems with clearance. Cars extremely strong, smooth, and quietly.

Thanks for the feedback I guess they must have updated the pistons.
