When I fitted forged accralites to my Cosworth I phoned the manufacturer (Accralite) and asked. As it turned out the bore was Ford standard o/size as the extra clearance is in the piston not the bore.

It's some time since I had an engine re-bored, but don't they supply pistons for a given bore size - ie +20 thou?
