Hey Guys,

I am rebuilding my 1930 Std 8 to get a set of Egge pistons out of it. I pulled the engine down because it was knocking and found that one of the pistons was scuffing on the front and back which is somewhat distressing. I pulled that piston and had had it measured by a machinist with the right tools... The wrist pin hole was not bored parallel with the axis of the crank, it's off .006" (up and down) over it's short length. This engine was rebuilt in the late 1980's and has only 9,000 miles on the rebuild. I will be looking at another brand of pistons.
