The pistons have been shipped out to me but I haven't received them yet. I gather that they recommend 0.004" clearance to the bores normally but then they recommend a further 0.001 - 0.003" clearance for supercharged or turbo charged applications. Did any of you guys add some additional clearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYNO-MITE have done 3 Atomic plates under warranty and wont use the Atomic plates anymore. Dion also wont use the Atomic head studs. My engine uses atomic timing gear and race pump, JE pistons. I spent a week at the DYNO-MITE work shop and saw a number of other Atomic parts that had failed including a major component of an Atomic 998 engine only 2000kms old. There are no silver bullets and things break! Edited 18/12/18 11:05 PM by Typhoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
