Im not, I havent even checked it. I thought you would divide by two, makes sense no?

Either way, if .012 is good enough for a forged car engine. It's good enough for my pressure washer engine....

.007 piston clearance is a .014 larger bore. And .03 sounds dangerously tight to me for forged pistons. I've heard of up to .012 clearance/ .022 larger bore.
