My experience with them is that growth happens quite a bit rechecking vmaxs.

Some set them cold and rechecked later when hot. If .010” was cold it probably is about .014” or more hot, and .016”...

Here is the Blower shops troubles with SM. I recalled wrong, it wasn’t the drive with the name on it, it was the blower. SM made it, and has the TBS logo right on there.
