engine build temps
 

i wanted to know does it give a matter what the temp in the area and engine is during rebuild? i have a unheated garge and a torpedo heater the heats next to nothing. i wanna start my build but dont wanna get incorrect torque readings due to low temps in the 30's day and night.

Here is a good explanation of temps on torque - https://cr4.globalspec.com/comment/5...nt-temperature

I would be more worried about proper clearance readings / measurements.

Most precision tools are calibrated at / for a specific temperature. Also to include the part being measured.
