Hi All,

I don't know where the original came from, so I don't know who to give
credit to?  The original spreadsheet came to my attention and I have
just been playing with it a bit to make a little more use of the
computational capabilities of the computer.  Granted - this whole thing
is really only useful for those who are doing they're valve adjustment
(the hard way) like I'm doing.  Checking clearances, removing shims to
check #, replacing shims, then ordering individual shims to get back to
spec.  I'm replacing all 24 shims just for peace of mind - needed or
not.

Anyway...................Here is the link to the Excel Sheet I've been
working on and I am really anxious to hear your feedback, comments AND
criticisms.  Thanks to the person who did the original!  The formatting
and layout are excellent!  This is just the latest version and there
will be more polished versions - time permitting.  Special thanks to
Alan Fanning for letting me bounce my ideas off him relentlessly.
