Thanks T. More useful methodology. A drill index plate would be ideal.

I'll give it a shot with my super cheapo plastic calipers, but the results would be suspect in absolute values. T's slide in method showed no detectable difference in the Keyster and Keihin needles for the CA.

But the old saying "a short stick measures long" may apply. My US measure is reasonably close I believe, but the metric scale is at least a mm off.

Good news is ......while looking thru my box of carb stuff I did find a 115 main Keihin in the pile! Been looking for one with no success for some time on the web and there it was in the box!
