[Shotimes] Valve shim kits...

[Bruce Malachuk]

I got some of the shims that the SHOshop had made up when I got thier rental
kit. I used all the ones that I needed that tightened up the clearances that
I was looking for. I didn't think much of them to start with, I'll see what
they look like when I pull the covers off again when I can afford the Stage
I cams.

94 Opal Frost MTX
94 Deep Emerald Green ATX - w/90k gonna be parted

BTW-Don thanks sooo much for testing that LPM out for me, it works perfectly
with this new ECC I picked up
