Thanks for the replies guys. Yes, I did use plastigauge. I adhere strictly to the procedure for using plastigauge. I have not checked with micrometers. I pretty much gave up after checking number1 and 2 cylinders when I read .0015''. I used the green plasticgauge with nothing to keep it in place and torqued to 55#.
Because I have stretched the first 2 cylinder bolts (4bolts) do you think that when i install the first 2 cylinders again, i should simply torque them and use a stretch gauge on the remaining cylinders? Thanks again.
