Single full step (Z) increment in mm?

Trying to confirm how many steps the Prusa MK3 stock stepper motors have per revolution?
Is it a standard t8 leadscrew?

On my monoprice select plus, it worked out so that a full step was 0.04mm, so I setup all my software to ensure everything was done in full step increments. I am hoping to understand the setup for the same on my MK3, but am having troubles finding details on the Steppers and leadscrews on the MK3...

Thanks reid.b!

At first I was snippy for the salt that came in your reply, but then I realized what you meant. Yeah, total duplication of alan.e22's week old post. My bad!
There is a ton of content in the forum, which I've been working my way through, but yeah, missed that for sure.

Appreciate it!
