Thrust Washer "Thicknesses", All 9XX 4-Cyl:
This is UNofficial. The Standard size thrust washer's thickness was measured by me. Then all other thicknesses shown are their 'Plus' thickness added to the measured Standard thickness. (ie, 0.0925" + 0.0025" = 0.0950")

+0.0025" = 0.0950" (2.4130 mm) A907E1001ZG, 0.0925" + 0.0025" = 0.0950"

"IF" you convert to a cross-drilled crank, you must also use the revised main bearing shells that go with that crank. Do NOT use the standard main bearing shells that are for "907 NON cross-drilled" cranks.

While I'm on a roll, most of the following specs are NOT published in any J-H or Lotus manual, so save them. I got them from Lotus Engineering.

Lotus introduced a new, composite cylinder head gasket in Jan 1993. It's compressed thickness is 0.50mm (0.0197") greater than the original steel-asbestos-steel gasket. That effectively raises the cylinder head by that same amount, and reduces the compression ratio by approximately half a point... ie, 8.4:1 becomes 7.9:1. Either...
1) Live with it,
. . Or...
2) Deck the block by a similar dimension, and seat the liners that much deeper into the block in order to preserve the spec 'nip' (ie, the liner's exposure above the block deck).
. . Or...
3) Order new pistons with 0.5:1 more compression than you're really targeting.
