[QUOTE="bluesdog, post: 1153159, member: 25896"] Just checked mine a couple of months ago. No shims were required. Most annoying thing was replacing the valve cover, as the gasket kept falling out until I used a very small amount of gasket sticker stuff to hold it in place. The throttle cables also required a bit of finesse -- on the Gen II make sure to loosen the connection at the throttle body, so the cables can be swung out of the way easily. Take pictures before, during and after, especially for things like the aforementioned throttle cables, so they can be routed/positioned correctly during reassembly. Take your time with it [/QUOTE]
