Installation Guide
Tools Required
- micrometer or feeler gauge
- magnetized shim pick
- valve cover gasket (recommended)
Pro Tips
- Measure all clearances first and calculate exact shim sizes needed
- Organize shims by size before starting
- Replace valve cover gasket during install
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using incorrect shim size without measuring clearance
- Dropping shims into engine (use magnetic tool)
- Not cleaning shim buckets thoroughly
Comparison vs Stock/OEM
Aftermarket precision shims designed for performance cams vs. OEM shims optimized for stock cams
Improvements
- Tighter tolerance manufacturing (+/- 0.01mm)
- Better material resists wear during high-performance valve adjustments
- Common sizes cover most cam upgrade scenarios
Considerations
- Requires precise measurement - not direct OEM replacement
