Calculate actual quench height

[AnthonyG]

I actually am satisfied I have the true clearance +or- .005 and am not concerned about interference. My question is, is .145” which it is too much & will it give me weak compression as it’s more than twice what it should be? I was expecting around .060”

Your doing things the hard way and making this more difficult (an less accurate) than it needs to be. Folks with years of experience are attempting to help you out here!!
