Have a few updates. My wife and I were in Iceland for the last 2 weeks taking our very belated honeymoon; got back last night. Was back at it today, made some progress. Disassembled the new engine, got the mls gasket and studs installed, gave everything a good clean. Got the VAC valve springs in and have started reassembling the engine.
Before I install the cams though, need some knowledge. VAC included two sets of shims with the valve springs. I've searched but cannot find any literature or installation guide from VAC. I'd contact VAC but I don't have 4 weeks to wait for them to get back to me...
They go underneath the lifters to limit the lash adjuster, correct? I haven't bolted the cams down but did put the lifters and cam tray together and everything seems to fit together nicely.
