Measuring Cylinder Bore
1.
Remove any burrs from the cylinder gasket surfaces.
2.
See
Figure 3-30.
Install a head and base gasket, and
CYLINDER TORQUE PLATES (Part No. HD-33446A)
and
TORQUE PLATE BOLTS (Part No. HD-33446-86).
Tighten the bolts using the same method used when
installing the cylinder head screws. See

NOTE
Torque plates, properly tightened and installed with gaskets,
simulate engine operating conditions. Measurements will vary
as much as 0.001 in. (0.025 mm) without torque plates.

3.
Take cylinder bore measurement in ring path, starting
about 1/2 in. (13 mm) from top of cylinder, measuring
from front to rear and then side to side. Record readings.

from front to rear and then side to side. Record readings.
4.
Repeat measurement at center and then at bottom of
ring path. Record readings. This process will determine if
cylinder is out-of-round (or “egged”) and will also show
any cylinder taper or bulge.

If cylinder is not scuffed or scored and is
within service limit, see

NOTE
If piston clearance exceeds service limit, cylinders should be
rebored and/or honed to next standard oversize, and refitted
with the corresponding piston and rings. Do not fit piston
tighter than 0.0007 in. (0.018 mm) See
