Six shims. Sizes 175, 180 and 185 all brand new. Also 188, 189 and 192 used. These were left over after shim adjustment and replacements from 16500 miles 'early' service I carried out. Donated to Dapleb for his fettling 'war chest'

Not true, strictly speaking.  Dappers offers a shim swapping service to sportin' members and Lee Henty owns a box of shims that he takes to fettle days.   ;)

Thats the spirit that makes Carpe great.
I'll be prevailing myself of the shim repository soon, (if I may ) as the old girl is fast approaching the 24k mark, and at least one valve clearance was really close to its limit about 8k ago.
Lock onto my co-ordinates and beam me up !!

04 900 - 92 mk 1 - r 1150 rs - Z550 A1 - 2x bonnies - plastic slug -XL185 - ...not in that order !! (and one or two i don't want / dare to own up to !!)
