"shimming" is just checking valve lash, set the motor a TDC on intake stroke and use a feeler gauge to check clearance below cam lobe. since their is no adj stud as with rocker arm set ups, you change a shim under the shim bucket to set your valve lash, to "loose" require a thicker shim.
Intake .004-.008"...i hate std measurements
exh .008-.012"
if you do it all at once, you can do all in an hour
