Split skirt and solid skirt pistons have different clearance requirements I believe.
1.5 thou for split skirts, 4 thou for solid, as a guide. Measured at bottom of bore.
Vernier calipers are jolly handy but not really up to the job of measuring journals and bores. It's well worth looking out for good used micrometers at autojumbles or even on ebay. Even with the right tools there's a definite art to precision measurement.
