Hey guys,

Just thought it would be an interesting fact to know, I was measuring bore diameters of my recently machined block with and without a torque plate installed (torque plate supplied by Baz, thank you very much mate).

The difference is around 0.01mm across all 4 cylinders in the North-South direction (as installed in the engine bay AWD application). No measureable difference in the East-West direction (as installed in the engine bay AWD application).

Note: bores are slightly oversize (85.5mm) and measurements taken on the top of the block.

Cheers
alex

Yep you can get a fair bit of variation using torque plate between different blocks too- how long did you wait after bolting the torque plate down before measuring?

didn't have time do do it right but found the time to do it twice....
