Just want to be clear, I have to measure the farthest and closest points that the piston comes to the head from the spark plug hole right? I was told it was a 4 mil but I just want to make sure. 71ff58f66fcea3c129b463f22c2d22dd.jpg1f00b19ffeca7d2d308659d929b5d64e.jpg

Some folks will talk shit, but you're ahead then a few fellas lately by at least using a decent way of measuring. Your numbers are fudged though. That only shows a 48mm stroke.

 

Get the piston at BDC shove the caliper slide pin all the way down till it hits the piston. Now slowly rotate the flywheel till the piston comes all the way up. Even if it goes past TDC the caliper should stop at the highest point. Subtract the difference. You need to make sure the caliper isn't wiggling though.

This method will be simpler.

Yeah I figured it out in the shoutbox yesterday. TDC is 34mm and BDC is 88mm. I didnt know you just subtracted the numbers so its 54mm, stock. Turns out it is a Hot Rods crank, I thought it was a Wiseco.
