new magneto stators coming in at 450 ohms?

I've seen sizes vary somewhat, which will make for different sized gaps, but it should be equal on top & bottom - also if it is very small, check that the armature legs of the stator haven't been 'pinched in' by dropping or being crushed a bit in shipping/handling - I like to see at least 8 thou here.

is that manufacture specs. here is a $5.00 trick I used a business card doubled up
 
8 thou is not an official spec - I just don't like to see something spinning that fast while that much vibration is going on without at least that much clearance
