When changing the cam its EASY to adjust valves.

1) bolt in cam.
2) take feeler gague and at TDC for each cylinder measure gap.
3) unbolt cam, increase or decrease thickness of shim to make up a proper
gap.

thats it.

You might have to bolt in the cam one more time or so if, upon measuring,
there is no gap on a cylinder or 2 (makes it hard to measure what size
shim oyu need if the one that is in there cant be measured.)

take care,

Steve
