It's hard to read some of them, but what would the smallest number be with .0325 taken off them?

It sounds like the machine shop are being mega cautious but that might be justified if they have to guarantee the over bore will be successful. It might be that .125 is doable but they can't 100% guarantee it will be successful.

It would have to be at your own risk.

Edit: is the smallest number .112 or .172?
What is the smallest number?
I would like a lot more numbers at top bottom and middle.
the thrust face is more critical than the others.
I sound like an expert, but am not. I did get a lot of great advice on here though.

Mart.

Mart, the smallest number is 147
