Hi Paul, Quote:
All my clearances were over specs, not under. I just spent 70 ****** dollars on the wrong size shims.
Sorry about that.  My math was reversed. Although not a consolation for having to take off, then reassemble the camshafts, I would like to buy the shims from you as I was at fault. But first, see if the dealer will swap them out for you. Either way, send me your address and I'll fire a check off to you. Let me know the cost you incurred as in return shipping or as in another order of shims. If you don't oblige me, I will plant some money on you while in Dahlonega.
PS: I have corrected the spreadsheet math. In the instance of the first valve, a new shim of 2.90mm would give a clearance of 0.29mm, which would be 0.015 higher than goal of .275mm. Override the lookup table and input a shim size of 2.925mm would give a clearance of 0.265mm, which is 0.010mm lower than the goal.
