Hello FOT,

I am in need of a valve spring shim kit for my road TR4A. I am having
trouble finding shims with the proper diameters.

The shims I have are showing an O.D. of 1.360 to 1.375 with an I.D. of .635

The outer valve spring is showing an O.D. of 1.310.

I am finding shim kits with O.D.'s of either 1.250 or 1.437. Too wide or
too narrow. I am not seeing a lot of O.D. space outside the 1.375 shims in
the spring seating area.

What are people using and where are you getting them?

Thanks!
