Piston question

I bought a motor fresh from the machine shop. Previous owner was putting it together to race /pull and had the machine shop hone on the looser side. I will be using it for my daily drive. Right now the bores are at 4.0197 - 4.0204 24 valve pistons are around 4.0118??? That would leave me with a piston to wall of . 0088

I talked to Ryan at polydyn at he said they can coat the skirts at. 0015 per side which would give me. 0058 wall clearence. Is this an acceptable solution for a daily driver or would I be better off honing it out to 20 over

Thanks for any help
Heath

Guess i should add, this will be a p pumped 24 valve, shooting for around 600 horses and a small set of compounds

I think that would be fine for a hot street truck as long as your ring gap isn't to big .006 is a good ptw for the street a lot of performance motors are well past .008 and it doesn't seem to have any significant impact on them

Agree you'll be fine, if not even better off.
