Hmmm,

I have never done a shim adjustment on these engines so I don't understand the number system.

What my first worry would be the shim kit should cover all the normal adjustments.

The worry continues for me that the valve seat is dropping out of the head or was not seated all the way into the head.
That would drop the valve tulip lower with the stem and all attached.

Is the engine running OK?
Has the head been repaired?

Phil
