This noise is old news. JE confronted this issue and corrected it at least 6 years ago. There are some old pistons floating around so if you're not certain of your piston design, don't use it for long life (high hour) racing. Always establish a reasonable life for all racing parts and count that in your budgetary concerns. If you have an old set and you're running it under moderate conditions, make sure you run straight/ thick wall wrist pins not tapered.
