Looking through my archives, I found an old email stating that I initi= ally used the 11.340" dimension, but it turned out to be too large and= I=A0had to send it back to have it re-sized to 11.230" which worked p= erfectly (didn't require stretching) and=A0laid in the groove very nice= ly.

Using your example of how to measure and calculate=A0the coolant o-rin= g dimensions, I ran the numbers and came up with 11.182" for the outer= coolant o-ring.=A0 Based on this info, I order based on the 11.230" d= imension for the outer o-ring.=A0 I'll let you know how it works out.

All of the other dims agree with my numbers.
