Short answer
Rancilio gives the Silvia a 58 mm portafilter. Normcore lists a 58.5 mm tamper and puck screen and a 58 mm dosing funnel for it. If you fit a precision basket, VST specifies 58.40 mm and IMS 58 or 58.4 mm, so match the tamper to the basket. The Silvia Pro X uses the same portafilter size.
