My factory workshop manual (1980) says the cutoff is above 0.84 mm.

Which workshop manual are you refering to?

I know about all that. My question was because on the altrom website
it states that the cutoff mark between using the different thicknesses
of gasket is at .84mm piston projection above the block and in the
Peugeot factory manual it says the cutoff is at .79mm. I was wondering
about the .05mm discrepancy.
Sorry if I wasn't clear. I'm not very good at making sense in written
On words all the time... :(
Thank you Abel for the contact info for Disortex!
