Hey Guys,

I'm doing a little preparation for a valve check this weekend and calling around in the event I need new shims for my '04.

Questions:
Are all makes of shims the same diameter? I'd assume not...
Anybody know the diameter of GS500 shim?

Thanks!

It's nominally listed as 29.5. Not a common size...
