Dial Indicator Set with On/Off Magnetic Base

Q: How strong is magnet? Plan to use it to find TDC on car for all 6 cylinders and need it to be strong.

Plenty strong enough if it is an iron block. Aluminum? Possibly doable. My application was to measure runout of a motorcycle rear wheel with respect to the final drive housing (BMW R1150RS). The final drive housing is aluminum, so I clamped a Vise-Grip to a handy bolt in the housing and stuck the magnet to the Vise-Grip. Measurement repeatability was less than 1 mil. On an aluminum block, you could cobble together an iron or steel plate that is bolted to the top of the block in a stud hole. You should be able to achieve the accuracy of the dial indicator itself.(If you are doing this with the head in place, the old kludge of a long screwdriver or socket extension in a spark plug hole will give a good relative indication of piston position.)

Q: what is the diameter or the vertical rod? will it fit in a standard router's 1/2" collet?

My dial caliper reads 0.467 inches. I don't have a micrometer, but I would expect that reading to be good to +- 2 mils. I don't know whether that means it would fit in a router's 1/2" collet.
