I'm having a go at splitting a Vespa rotary valve crank, to swap a conrod.
So i did that, and pressed it back together, and Ive been trying to line it up by sitting it in some V blocks , running a dial guage on the rotary web, i've got it to .02mm, is this close enough? also what clearance can you have between the rotary pad and the web?

.02 is more than adequate. but i don't know about the other stuff :)

Turned out I was measuring .2mm, which was too much, & I was measuring in the wrong place, should measure on the ends of the shafts and .025 - .05 are pretty good run out. Cheers though. It'll blow it self to bits anyway when I put the malosi on it!
