[alfa] Re: shims

["Dean" <tessiedog@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When they are not perfectly flat they will become fatigued at one point and
the shim breaks. It makes a mess at the top of the valve stem, collets and
springs. It is very hard to have a machine finish when sanding the shims by
hand. Many people I know use only original shims. They wont even trust  a
machined one.
Cheers,
Dean.
