Default How much piston to wall clearance for this motor?

GE sleeved CP pistons

I want to run about 400 at the wheels on pump gas, mid 500's on C-16 race fuel.

What kind of piston to wall clearance should I make it? I am sendint the block for a final hone with the pistons but need to know how much clearance to use. Thanks

Check the piston spec sheet, I believe is 0.0030" clearance.
