The one in the box is a cylinder bore micrometer. Not the best tool for the job.

The other one is not in my model t era stevens catalog.

The first one looks like a bicycle spoke wrench.

Thanks guys. I have two different Stevens tool catalogs and neither catalog has either tool. Ive been searching e-bay for some of the obscure "back of the book" tools shown in the catalogs. Every now and then I stumble on a unknown weird Stevens tool.

Does your catalog show the cylinder bore micrometer. ????? I know that Stevens also made quiet a few tools for 490 Chevrolet and other makes.

The micrometer is in the t era stevens speed up tools catalog at the cimorelli ford publications site. T-504, pg 34. It uses different length pins for different bore sizes and feeler gauges to measure wear. Not user friendly and not one of their better ideas. It is not ford specific.

Humblej, Thanks, I found it on the Cimorelli site. You are correct about not user friendly. The tool is very "over engineered". I may still try to get it to add to the collection, Even though Ill never use it. Thanks ag8ain
