Engine decking issue(help)

Look, this is REAL easy to do yourself. Get you a 12" dial caliper. If you work on your own stuff, it'll be handy anyway. Stick one end of the caliper on the deck and the other end in the crank bore. Make SURE the end that's on the deck is FLAT and SQUARE to the deck. Close the caliper and take a reading. Then add HALF the crank main bore diameter to your reading. There's your deck height. Do that on all four corners and you can find the answer yourself. It would be easier with two people, so one could hold the deck end of the caliper straight and true to the deck. Calipers have the thin knife edged measuring surface on the ends, but they get wider to give a better surface about 3/4" in. That's the surface you want to use. I measure all of mine before I take them in so I'll know if somebody doesn't know how to read a mic. lol
