    The shim kit is nothing more than an assortment of gaskets of varying thicknesses. If you measured .003-.004, using a gasket that measured .006 should give you optimal end clearance. You may not have needed the shim kit, but it's good to have.

    18 cars, a great night, and it got quite chilly. Jason took the ferry, and drove up Rt 7 to Danbury. Followed me home though, 84 to 684 to Hutch, to 95 to Throgsneck Br.

    Yes, and a very nice one. LIE to Exit 41 (Rt. 106/107 ), north on 106 to West Main Street, barricades on left. Street is closed by the local Chamber of Commerce until mid October. 5:00PM - ?. This thread is from last Tuesday:
