Hi Tony,
=20
regardless what the manufacturer says I set forged pistons on 0,13mm =
clearance.
Runs forever, never any issues, no piston slap. That=E2=80=99s my engine =
man recommended and so we did.
My TR4 runs on the same pistons now for 10 years with one change of =
rings inbetween.
=20
On aluminum engines =E2=80=93 different story.
=20
Cheers
Chris

Hi folks=20
=20
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 there an issue with piston / liner clearances as some have said ? Or =
is it just a question of not letting the engine run over hot ?
=20
I have Venolia=E2=80=99s in my other bigger capacity engine and they =
have been great, but I=E2=80=99m not so sure about Uk supply any more. =
They also needed the longer Carillo rods, so if I go that route I end up =
with a set of pistons I don=E2=80=99t need.
=20
What=E2=80=99s the advice from the wise ?

I believe that J&E owns Wiseco. The Kipp family in Ohio started Wiseco =
and owned it until a few years ago. I found this out when I called J&E =
about ordering pistons, or I called Wiseco. Can't remember who I called =
first. Tom Kipp was a top AMA Super Sports and Super Bike racer during =
the '90s. Wiseco was a big sponsor of AMA and might still be. I =
installed a Wiseco 1200cc piston kit in my '93 H-D Sportster way back in =
the '90s. =20
