klr: shim calculations
Posted: Fri Apr 21, 2000 8:40 pm
				
				Hello Listers,
 
 I got my shims out and I'm ready to get replacements! Can someone double 
 check my math for me? I calculated the following:
 
 Left exhaust: Clearance .005, old shim 270, thus new shim: 255
 Right exhaust: Clearance .006, old shim 265, thus new shim: 255
 Left intake: Clearance .004, old shim 255, thus new shim: 245
 Right intake: Clearance .005, old shim 255, thus new shim: 250
 
 I used the ShimCalc software, which is pretty awesome. I just wanted someone 
 to confirm my results. Would any of these be too loose?
 
 Thanks,
