Dumb question.....

I'm wanting to order a loos gauge but am not sure which one to get, metric or standard? I found one cheap on eBay and ordered only to find it was the wrong size model, (3/16" and up). I can't find the size of my diamonds and stays in the AHPC manual, but it mentions the diamond settings on the loos gauge as between 32-40, but 32-40 what? I'm assuming I would get the metric one?

You want the Loos Professional Gauge (the black one). Not sure about the size of the diamonds on a viper though.

Will it make a difference whether I order the metric or standard version? Pretty sure I need the smaller version that does 3/32" and up/2.5mm and up.

yes, smaller black one. The only thing that is metric or imperial is the conversion numbers. Otherwise everyone just goes off of the numbers on the gauge.
