Where is everyone #5

NO, NO, NO, YA edgmacated tool turner ! Get the dial indicator !!!

 

I bought a knock off of snap-ons. Brand new for $750. I'll have ta swing by the shop to get the mfg. Of it.

 

Wow...my wife found mine at a pawn shop for $150...and she made them throw in a digital camera too.

 

Yup. As far as I know it's the only physical store in North America. But back in the 2009-2014 boom we probably had the highest concentration of skilled tradespeople anywhere on the continent lol.

I was being kinda sorta sarcastic. I'm gonna keep hunting for the proper stuff. I've got a bunch of dial indicators, just not the proper gauge to put it in.

 

Do like I did. Have a machine shop make the bar for the gauge.

 

pawnshop is where I found mine

 

Good idea! If I can't find anything here I'll probably have to go that route.

I've never checked protrusion on a spacer plate engine before. I'm assuming I'll need that gasket between the spacer plate and the block for an accurate measurement.

 

Yes and crush washers from parts dept...I can get the number out of my book later if you need it

 

Crush washer? Never heard of those. Definitely would appreciate that, thank you!

I think this is the first wet sleeve engine I've had apart since about 2010. All rest I've done were dry sleeve/no sleeve.

 

Crush washers....used to check protrution. Made of a fiber material.
