    29x 4age shims

    So after my HG change and vigourous valve lapping , i found i had no clearance on a couple of valves.

    A quick visit to the scrap yard this morning and i manage to whip the cams out of some heap of a corina, and a more recent corola. Despite different bucket types, the shims look identical, and are indeed interchangeable as far as i can tell. Even if they arent, i just did 20 miles with them in, so cant be bad...

    Ive got 29 in total, as 3 fell into the mud and i couldnt be arsed to retrieve them.

    my vernier isnt decent enough to measure them accurately (i used them to simply find the thinnest ones to get my car working), so not sure what sizes i have, but mostly around the 3mm + mark, some a touch under 3mm...

    If anyone is refurbing a head, im offering these for free, then take the ones you need, and then pass them on to the next person who so requires a set. All i would ask is the cost of postage to be covered by paypal.

    Cheers,

    Scott
