Thanks to everyone for their input on micrometers. It appears that I was looking in all the wrong places. My usage will hopefully be a one shot deal so I will be checking harbor freight, whitney and

Beware of having the machine shop "mike" your crank unless you trust their work. I moved to a new city, did not know of any good shops, and had a crank "miked" at the local machine shop. They said th

Little humor: I am a big fan of plastigauge, and checking everything twice. Did the usually trick on one crank that have been turned "20/10" Checking everything, the crank mains were indeed 0.020" u

I bought a set of bore gauges (the kind that are spring-loaded telescoping rods with locks for checking cylinder bores) from Harbour Freight for about $25. They seem to work fine for the handful of t

T-gauges are neat, and a whole lot more accurate than one might think, but they can be fooled. They only measure at two points, and you can miss an out-of round condition. Phil

Absolutely! In fact, if it is cylinder bores you are talking about, bore shape is even more important than diameter. Internal combustion engines tend to wear more side-to-side than front-to-back, due

There is actually a guage built for measuring just this sort of thing. looks like a dial guage mounted on a sled. You slide it into the bore and can rotate it about the cylinder axis to determine out

I thought you were looking for micrometers not LOVE! While use for 2", 3" etc mics are not extreamly common unless you are doing a lot of engine rebuilding, a 1" mic. is almost invaluable. I was for

When I said "bore gauge," I did not mean "snap gauge" or "T-gauges." I would love to have the type with the dial gauge. This measures out-of-round. But to get a "quality" gauge of this type that meas

I have a two-point dial bore guage. The old T-guages are actually easier to use. How else are you going to find an out-of-round condition? You turn the guage 45 or 90 degrees and measure that way. T

There are an infinite number of figures with constant width that are NOT round. The simplest to describe is a sort of rounded triangle: take an equilateral triangle, set a compass to the length of t

Oh, my, yes. If the OOR condition is oval (two-lobe) as typical in a car cylinder. If it is three- or five-lobed as from a twist drill, you may never see it with a two-point measuring device. That's
