BigRed350x Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Use a dial gauge and find true TDC, then measure how much the edge of the piston protrudes above or below the cylinder deck. You can do it with a dial gauge or even feeler gauges, or a set of calipers. Jared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
