No need - you have that from micing the crank and rod bore or from plastiguage. Simple math - and the crank does not necessarily ride @ center at rpm anyway right? so, you know the tolerance "window" of measurements and affect on deck or other issues such as p-v @ rpm, which also needs to consider rod stretch, piston "growth" at temp, etc, etc. Details - the devil is in there.
