The formula for converting degrees to mm is this: Tmm = R + [1/2S * (1 - Cos T)] - R - (1/2S * Sin T) T is timing in degrees Tmm is timing in mm of piston...

Do you hand-hold the micrometer, or can you anchor it to the studs? Also, do you have the mm/degree conversion? I'd like to use this technique, because even...
