Those look to be cast pistons. I'd set the clearance at 0.0001"-0.0012" if I were making the engine for someone.
If I remember correctly it was .0012....I had them in an engine about 40 years ago.
Thanks for re-posting on it so it brought it back to me: I just noticed the misplaced "1" in the first number! That 0.0001" would be a loooong break-in... ![Sad :(](http://forums.sohc4.net/Smileys/default/sad.gif)
It should have been 0.0010" .
I did see that but chose not to mention it.
