sounds to me like the wsm with the differnt pin height and banshee dome profile are the big bore stroker 68mm banshee pistons..

 

blaster pistons are just that blaster pistons... they have the blaster dome profile and the differnt pin height due to it being a blaster...

 

any piston with a too much piston to wall clearance will break skirts and have issues. since the cubs mostly come as cast and plated for maybe running with wiseco pistons ( as thats whats spec'd at CP INd) i would say using a differnt brand, tolerance piston without changing the wall clearance will most likely result in a failure. in all reality if your running a CUB or other previously plated cylinder a correct piston to wall clearance is very necessary..

 

im sure if you droped in pro-x cast pistons in it it may have the same issues.. but you'd have to measure it.....

 

thats basic engine building techniques...

You are very correct but what I have been telling everyone is passion racing set the motor up new and he is the one of the builders that use wsm. Everything should have been correct! Only thing we could find that could have caused it is how wide he ported the exhaust and caused a little piston slap. The wsm could not hold up to it.
