Spot on zixx!!!



Btw , how did you end up with .35mm shimming?

You should use calipers to check the actual thickness of the shims you are installing to achieve proper deck heighth . I got a sweet little tool (custom depth gauge with a manual readout ) that I used to use often to check actual deck heighth and now I pretty much just use the shims because novarossi engines are pretty consistent in the machining dept. ;-)

Another thing , make sure an aluminum .30mm shim isn't stuck to the head button , seen that happen a lot .
