Reply to "Piston clearance"

I know where to mic them, instructions were included. I slid them into the bore and tried the feeler gauge method they are a little tight. I used the micrometer to measure bore and pistons .2" above the bottom of skirt and did the math, they're loose. What's up? I tend to believe the feeler guage and not my micrometers because the feeler guage is consistently binding at 0.003->0.035" at the bottom of the skirt where it should be tightest. This leaves me with just a bit to hone. I get 0.006-.007 by mic/math method.
