Has anyone kept record of the size shims they take out of their In and EX? If this motor is put together all with the same specs wouldn't the shims all be the same size from the factory? How do they know if they are tight or loose without tearing each engine down and checking and then putting in the correct shim? All of you that have checked and had to change shims should have the same size shims from the factory or am I way off base in thinking that, or is that way to easy? That way, we would know the size shims without checking the size and could figure out the correct shim before we pull the cams with shim sizes from all of you that have had to change shims. Also, when you change shims to get into spec, do you use only one shim or do you put in a couple shims to get it into spec? I know that is a wierd question but I really don't know the answer to that.
