OH! I just had a flash..of memories.. Remember when you are measuring that Temperature variations can make some changes in the numbers you get.
I remember on real hot days we would hit the carb for a while with a Dry Ice extinguisher to cool it to make sure it passed on the size. Most of the time hot and cold heads measure different too. I've got some interesting stories about Temps. Best one was .001 on a hot spacer that almost threw out a top name team at EMC. I said "Almost" Remember that one R.J.? :~) I bet there are a lot of Tech stories out there!!
