need 0.015" and 0.030" (maybe 6 of each)
where can i get some???
also can someone confirm that the inner springs also require the same washer/shim set up. (was told they do but didnt find any in the removed parts)
not a single machine shop has them...anywhere that ive called. unless i want em for a honda.
ISKY didnt have them for a datsun head.

Re: Valve Spring Shim
You can't get them from a machine shop? My machine shop had them in stock when they cut the new seat heights...

EVERY shop i called either laughed that i need something for a datsun or no longer dealt with it.
the machinist did end up tracking them down for me...2 weeks later
good thing as i didnt wanna end up w/90 spares
i do have 1- 0.30" and 2- 0.15" avail for the next guy.
i dont plan on assembling another head myself again...
