custom cam shims

[quake]

anyone know where to get custom shims for the 7m in the us? Ted cams shows up to 3.5mm. I need a 3.12mm or like .135thou. Thickest from toyota is .129

Goodson has some:

25mm dia x 3.10mm thick...Kinda pricey, but you get 4 in a pack. Thickness vary in 0.05mm increments.

Otherwise it will be custom...PM suprarich and he might be able to help.

Jeff Watson charged me 6.80 a piece for mine, those are only 3.75 each.

NP...you're welcome.

BTW:
- 3.12mm = 0.123"
- 3.10mm = 0.122"

Not a lot of difference, but not even close to the 0.135" posted above

also if you want custom shims you can take them to a good machine shop with a surface grinder and have the ground to size. I've done this several times. Works great.

my machine shop is also grinding mine down though i think he needed thicker ones?

I bought mine from Goodson. CHEAP, compared to OEM.
