[QUOTE="GreenF350, post: 866568, member: 7731"] Yes...Measured them out and shimmed appropriately. Went on the tight side if I couldn't get exact. (smallest shim I had or could find was .015") Went pretty smooth. Only weird thing was my seals (New ones) mesured at about .035"-.040". I thought maybe my cheapish calipers were just off, but it measured the .015" and .030" shims accurately so....I dunno. By my math I shouldn't run into any issues like coil bind, even if my measurements were that far off....worst case I end up with a little extra seat pressure since as far as I can tell I was shooting for 1.78" installed height and coild bind is around 1.28". My research says it's just under .400" lift at the valve on a stock cam so that leaves me .100" of room minus any measurement errors. Just gotta get into the passenfer side now. I started removing the dang heater box yesterday (That's more complicated than I thought it would be) and got rained on so I gave up...probably won't be able to work on it until Christmas eve, but hopefully I can finish up this week. -Aaron [/QUOTE]
