Okay so my both exhaust clearences are 0.010 and are supposed to be 0.017-0.022 and the shims are 300 so what shims for exhaust? and the intake clearence is 0.06 on both and supposed to be 0.010-0.015 and shims are 290 so what shims should I put on there?

The shims being "290" and "300" sound like they are in mm

3.00 mm = 0.118"

2.90 mm = 0.114"

So by my intense calculations, sounds like you need

Exhaust - 275 (2.75 mm or 0.108")

Intake - 405 (4.05 mm or 0.160")




Although are you sure your intake clearance is 0.060" and not 0.006"?

Put the 290 shims in the exhausts
And get 280 for the inlets
