I just got some manley forged pistons, the sheet recommends .0035" (0.0899mm) piston to wall clearance, for experience, that's a big gap, and im sure that would make the piston knock when cold, how tight can i go?.. i have assembled bmw engines with .00197" (0.05) with forged pistons, without knock, nor cylinder wall problems, and those engines runs really hot, so the pistons expands more than other engines...
Also, what ring gap should i have? i'm using speed pro rings...
