Of course a taper will fit a taper even if max or min diameter is off a bit
so long as the angles are still the same. A smidge off in a taper isn't
quite as far off as a smidge in linear lineup. Especially if there's the
least bit of crush available.
What amazes me is the repeatability in everything on these engines
EXCEPT for piston projection. I really don't get why it's so variable
yet bearing, bore, etc tolerances are within less than .001 easily!
