A gas turbine engine (GTE) including a thermally expandable transition piece is disclosed. The GTE includes at least a combustor section having a combustor sleeve, also known as top hat, and a transition piece. The transition piece includes a transition duct having an upstream end, a downstream end, a outer surface and a forward end face. The transition piece also includes one or more struts selectively attached to the transition duct proximate to the upstream end. The strut extends radially upward from the outer surface, and axially outward beyond the forward end face for interfacing the strut with at least a portion of the combustor sleeve.
