[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 2351858, member: 6777"] just remember those gauges are harder than a drill bit. you can notch'em with a dremel cutoff wheel. just don't take too much or you won't get a good boltface to gauge fit. put masking or scotch tape in layers on back of gauge then when it won't close anymore, carefully peel off the tape in one chunk and measure the thickness with a micrometer and you will know your headspace.
