I measured the offset at .068" which is pretty much in line with the common figure of .060". Most aftermarket pistons do not have offset and the net is all over the place with information-most is just opinion. I am inclined to go with the offset since that is the way the factory did it. I think the concept is obsolete today due to the tight clearance pistons run at.
