    Sorry Jerry, I missed your post. These are full floaters and they move extremely easily. I checked for locking clips not staying in and all that stuff, and they are fine. It just looks to me as if the increased stroke is for some reason pulling the piston to the 12 and 6 oclock side of each cylinder. Could it be too much piston to wall clearance? I can take a couple of them and very slightly move the piston up and down in the bore. Not a lot, just like it is moving on the rings a tad. By up and down I mean sideways in the bore.
