piston manufacturers usually recomend a specific bore diameter to account for the expansion of forged pistons once they heat up. This can create piston slap when cold. Although not all forged internal engines have piston slap.

cars come stock with them up here, and if they don't, people pay up to 200 bucks to have one installed, infact there is many different kinds.
