allis C rod and main bearing shims.

d. coleman · Aug 31, 2010

are the shims for rod and main bearing caps supplied in bearing or o/h kits, or do they have to be obtained from a differant source? if a differant source, where? has anyone made them from regular shim stock? the ones in my engine were not reusable or at i wouldn't choose to reuse them. thanks, d.coleman

you make your own, or buy from AGCO... not in the kits. get a small sheet of .002 and cut them with sissors.

Use aluminum flashing when thicker ones are needed.
Still can be cut with the wife's scissors when she is not around.
