you didn't ask "what is plastigage" - but I am going to just presume that
you dont' know what we are talking about - so start herehttp://www.ehow.com/how_2142943_use-plastigage-measure-clearances.html


Thanks for the link Bill - I heard of the stuff, but had no idea how
to use it, being but a mere beginner in engineering. I can assume the
same procedure is used to measure con rod clearances to the
crankshaft?
(and theres lots of other interesting mechanical engineering type
stuff there too)
