Frequently Asked Questions

This is an 8.90 mm diameter valve shim refill pack in a single thickness (1.92 mm), designed as a top-off for the corresponding Hot Cams 8.90 mm shim kit.

It is intended as a refill for an existing Hot Cams shim kit. For a full valve adjustment you usually need a full assortment of sizes, not just this one thickness.

The 5PK890192 package contains 5 pieces of the same shim size (8.90 mm diameter, 1.92 mm thickness).

Yes, as long as your engine uses 8.90 mm diameter shims. Always confirm shim diameter in your service manual before ordering.

They are aftermarket equivalents to OEM valve shims of the same diameter and thickness, offering an economical alternative to buying OEM shims one-by-one.

Installation Guide

Difficulty Medium
Est. Time 1 hr 0 min

Tools Required

  • Service manual for specific vehicle
  • Metric socket set
  • Torque wrench
  • Feeler gauges
  • Magnet pick-up tool or shim tool
  • Micrometer or digital caliper (to verify shim thickness)
  • Screwdrivers
  • Pliers
  • Clean shop rags

Pro Tips

  • Work on a cold engine and measure all clearances before removing any shims.
  • Lay out a diagram of the head and label each valve with its original shim size and new size.
  • Use a micrometer to verify shim thickness even if it’s marked.
  • Turn the engine over by hand at least two full revolutions and re-check clearances before final button-up.
  • Do one valve at a time to reduce the chance of mixing up shims.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Not recording original shim sizes and locations before removal
  • Mixing up cam caps or not following proper torque sequence
  • Rotating engine with cams or caps improperly installed
  • Failing to re-check valve clearances after installing new shims
  • Dropping shims into the engine and not accounting for them

Comparison vs Stock/OEM

Functionally equivalent to OEM valve shims of the same diameter and thickness, but sold in a multi-pack refill format instead of single OEM pieces.

Improvements

  • Lower cost per shim compared to most OEM single shims
  • Convenient multi-pack of a commonly used size for frequent adjusters or shops
  • Compatible with Hot Cams shim kits for organized storage

Considerations

  • Only one thickness per pack; not a full assortment like OEM catalog options
  • Must match OEM shim diameter (8.90 mm) to avoid fitment issues

Durability & Warranty

Expected Lifespan Designed to last for typical valve shim service intervals; usually only changed when adjusting clearances, not due to wear on the shim itself.
Warranty Covered under Hot Cams’ standard limited warranty against manufacturing defects (specific terms vary by retailer and region).
Maintenance No direct maintenance on the shims; follow manufacturer-recommended valve clearance inspection intervals and re-measure clearances periodically.
