I'm getting ready to match drill the F-904H side doublers to the F-704 bulkhead assembly and have a few questions. This will lock in the spacing between the for and aft F-704 assemblies and defines the gap where the wing spar will fit. The instructions say to ensure that this gap is 1.438" exactly. I have blocks and the 2 aluminum spacers that match that. However when I put a clamp on the ends of the spar and measure the tickness, it comes out at 1.447 inches. If I match drill at the 1.438 like the plans state, it seems that the interference will be too great to insert the wing spar when that big day comes.
