Pay a cam grinder to measure it properly for you.

and the ability to use them properly.
I prefer to do it with one piston installed & with one ring fitted.[if possible] Much less stiction & smoother rotation which makes the job much easier & often more accurate.

I love the pictures. Most impressed.

Great pictures...but instead of a 90 deg max dial gauge, there's a full 360 deg also right?...
