[QUOTE="kaitsdad, post: 1167271, member: 1222"] I'm assuming those measurements are standard, not metric. I've adjusted valves on 6 different fjr engines - and all but one had a tight E4-2. They all required shimming. Mileages were between 53k and 125k. As you are pulling the cam to do this, you may as well shim the others as close to the 70th percentile as you can get. And 4E-2 is stuffed into the right front corner, which makes access all the more fun.
