Checking the Mahle cylinders on the surface plate. Height from "top" of cylinder to shoulder. All check within tolerance, 4 are close to zero difference, 2 seem to have slight variance from side to side.
(Each division on my gauge is .0005")
Well within tolerance.
This is the worst cylinder. Maybe that's .00025" reading between the lines. May try to find a better indicator just to put a number on it.
Tried another indicator.but the adapter I am using won't hold position.
As head of the metrology department here I can find no fault with these parts. I will forward the parts over to the team lead for engine assembly (also myself) to perform another fit check to verify deck height.
