Ok, again, you have to adjust 9 & 3, first. More then likely you will have a different thickness of shims under each bolt. What you are doing is twisting the housing casting, to get the same reading, on each side.
Then you use plus, or minus shims, in equal amounts to get 12, and 6 to read the same.
Top, and bottom may, or may not read the same as either side, but what your after is 4 level points to bolt to, so the bell housing bolts square, and the pilot is straight, and NO bind in the pilot shaft.
Now, all good out comes depend on cranks where they belong.
Flywheels ground correctly.
Pressure plates rebuilt, surfaced, and bolts adjusted, ect.
