I hate to be the bearer of bad news but calipers are hardly accurate to the .001 much less .0005. I believe the mitutoyo calipers in our shop come with papers saying that they are accurate within .003. The brown and sharpe that we order for our critical machinists claim to be accurate to +-.001

Yeah I know. The purpose of the measurements was to compare between the different manufactures of injectors. For all practical purpose of this thread the measurements were close enough. But when you compare the measurement from part to part and it says 0.2705 on each, thats damn close tolerance between 3 different manufactures, Italy?, Bosch, Delphi.

the only way I see to make it work is to make individual caps that the t portions slip together sealed by orings. The only measurement that would really be a factor then would be the depth but you could solve that by making the sealing surfacte of the injector orings elongated.
