Agreed - can't resist my .02 - nothing like a micrometer with a vernier
scale to the nearest .0001
inch. Plastigage won't do that for you. Also, mics are easier to
use and look bitchin' in a felt lined machinist's tool box, too. As
Brian's $2000 oops demonstrates, a little up front time and money is an
excellent investment, and I think it's safe to say if it can happen to
someone with his experience, it will happen to us shadetree guys as well on
MUCH looser tolerance engines.
