Hi folks
I have a set of Wiseco 89mm pistons that i bought maybe 10 years ago I was =
going to use in a torquey rally engine with a set of Carillo rods - is ther=
e an issue with piston / liner clearances as some have said ? Or is it just=
a question of not letting the engine run over hot ?
I have Venolia=E2=80=99s in my other bigger capacity engine and they have b=

needed the longer Carillo rods, so if I go that route I end up with a set o=

What=E2=80=99s the advice from the wise ?
Regards
