My book is just metric. I had 2 in stock (from my XJs) & 1 was a swopper, the other 5, I have ordered from Chacal (xj4ever) on the xjbikes.com forum, he charges $8 ea which with the shipping is still 1/2 price to the stealership.

hi wiz,
i had posted up a while back of some of the spare
shims i had but there isnt a library set up for them.

that chart u listed is for metric which is fine,  i just find it easier if i use imperial
measurements.

intake  4 - 6 thou

exhaust 8 - 10 thou

with each .5 shim being a whisker under 2 thou each.
