Dip360 you did adjust the gauge for your length bolt I got to ask? And I like to set it so the gauge is bout 1/2 through its sweep for good tension and then zero it. The arp unit works flawless from the box with the tiny adjustment.

Nope, most certainly NOT!
I think that is part of my problem...the tension on the dial indicator plunger is too light and that causes the reading to vary as I attempt to hold the gauge in place to get a reading.
I will try to take the Amazon gauge apart this evening to see if this is something I can change.
