Hard to say, I polished my gears with 600 grit polish paper. I didn't need to add any additional shims. It felt tight at first but after some break in, it was good. No leaks yet. I also added a bit of Tamiya AW where the two covers meet the gasket.

The annoying part must be chopping cross joint to fit. I skipped the knife and sanded it off so I can be more precise.
