Message	incorrectly. We ended up going with Ross pistons as they have longer skirts and will be less likely to rock around in the chamber. They say piston slap doesn't hurt anything - bah. All that raquet does hurt things moreso than when it doesnt. Its the difference between pushing on a piece of metal vs. hammering it. Eventually that shock will fatigue the metal into failure.
