Clutch Slave Ring Dimensions?

[65 Lotus]

Anyone happen to have a loose clutch slave cylinder (S1) and a pair of calipers handy that could measure:

1. The outside diameter of the cylinder itself
2. The diameter of the snap ring groove
3. The width of the snap ring groove

Getting ready to tear into it again, and tired of messing around with the standard snap ring. Even with the right tool, I always yield the material and then have a heck of a time getting it to secure properly.

Going to get with some spiral and snap ring companies my employer works with and see what I can come up with.

Thanks!

Looks like .064 or .065 inch

looks like 1 inch id and 1.180 or 1 and 3/16 od maybe a little less as its a used clip and it may have stretched some.

spare cylinder for my S4 and I believe they are all the same measures

snap ring groove width 2.10 mm
snap ring groove base diameter 26.25 mm
cylinder OD 28.25 mm
tolerances of about +/- .05 mm on these measurements due to wear or out of round
