I had to do it on an old 383 I had that was decked and heads were milled. Any spped shop should have the shims you need. the shims available are just pieces of bend sheet metal with a constand material thickness. Such shims will leave a gap in the lowest point of the shaft saddle and I am afraid of loosing oil pressure were the rocker shafts are feed. Btw. Dimensions in the sketch are metric... I dunno what to tell you boss. I ran them for 2 years w/o a problem. This was a 383 that I shifted at 6800 and ran the snot out of it. It had plenty of oil pressure.
