Hi Henry....welcome aboard!!!
In most vintage arenas I think 87mm is the number.
We have a set of 87mm .030 over, that I plan to install some day, and
expect to get some raised eyebrows. (They are NOS from the 60s and the
price was right)
Gillanders sells a set of 89mm pistons with "thicker" racing liners and
I think the guys on the West coast use these. The midwest is a bit more
constrained.
I am sure you will hear from others on this.
Regards,
Alexander Racing
