I guess what I am asking is would a set of cams come with 24 new "tappets" all of the same thickness or a giant box of different thickness "shims" that we would have to set and check and swap till correct? We used to stock dozens if not hundreds of shims to set the valves on our suzuki outboards.
They'll be set shims for the install. So there is no need to worry about any mixed bag shims with various thicknesses to contend with
