correct engine building requires oversize so clearances can be correct

problem is that when you get the pistons they are all different sizes
if your cheap go std, if u have a few more dollars do it right

he was talking about clearances being different when using aftermarket pistons, some people(but not all) go with an overbore to get the right piston to wall clearance
