Welll......maybe it wasn’t .027
It was .023.....

But that’s still a lot.

That snap ring.....is .050
If I could find one .065

That would leave the play at around .012 and that would be a lot better.

I’m still looking into honing those bores to cut in the new sealing rings. One of the books says you can put a quick hone on it.
I might have left it alone but I have to get a new front servo. One of the kids took one of the front servos and thought it was really cool. Then completely denied it. They are 6 and 7. They probably lost it so I’m in for a new one or used one with new ring gaskets.

So I’m looking at
snap ring thickness
Honing servo bores
And adding bar stock for line pressure adjustment I’ll probably never need.

After that......I’m done and putting it back together.
I have never honed any of the servo bores and I ve never had a problem. I have gradually been switching over to Teflon sealing rings where applicable.
