Forget about using the SAE guage. Go buy a metric feeler guage. The SAE guage won't have the exact blade you need. Also, the CAM gasket is very reusable. Do not apply RTV to it unless you just use a couple of dots to hold in place. It's made to seal without RTV. Go to Dinqua's site for the valve shim calculator. Sears has a nice Metric feeler guage.
