    Just a tip when your attempting to shim a cam set. Once all the measurements have been made don`t blindly open the package of shims and install them by counting them. .007+.007,etc.Measure each shim coming out of the package.they have been known to vary by a few thousands.
    Ask me how i know,DUH
