[Vwdiesel] How to lose the thou.

[Mark Shepherd]

Coefficient of linear expansion for Al is 1/0.0000208 per
deg C
                                        Cast    Fe is
1/0.0000108 per deg C

piston crown gets to 500 deg C;      so 500 x 0.0000208

=0.0104 or 1%
piston diameter 76mm...
1% is 0.76mm
                         or 30 thou!!!!!

This is 30 times 1 'Loren'....(8oD)
