Default Re: How Do I Read A Dial Caliper ? ? ?

You can't accurately measure cylinder distortion with a dial caliper. You need a bore gauge, and they're some serious $$$. Even at that it takes some experience in reading a bore gauge correctly. You'll be time and money ahead to just take it to a qualified machine shop and have them take the measurements. Ask them to show the measurements to you and I'm sure they'll oblige.
