Clay is supposed to be the optimal / accurate way to measure squish

Hummm... too much "sring back" with tin??? Maybe we're talking about something like 0.00000001" of spring back here ;-)

I think the variance is lot more then that claude.    most builders around me have always recommended and used the clay to do squish.

Less chances of inaccurate readings.  have you ever done 5 plus squish test on the same cyl...  you usually always get a few that give "off" readings.

 

Any high end drag motors use clay as well.. def not measured with flux core solder

Measure the clay and Putty carefully as too not “squish” it more with the caliper “prongs”

 

I used solder and measured each cylinder three times. Each time I got the same. Felt like Took forever bolting and unbolting the head 3 times to torque in sequence.

.038 is a bit tight imo. You typically wanna see these things between .045-.055 depending on setup. What base gasket do you have and is your head just a milled stocker.
