You can get shimm under bucket kits from PAMI or Web Cam's Sam Coe sells the Web cams one. They will work with any set of cams and are a must for high RPM. The hard part is finding the shims. I had to have my valve stems tiped.

MudStud,
Save your money... you don't need shim under bucket. If you puke a shim at the RPMs that you will be running it will be because the set-up was wrong. Just seat the shims properly and adjust the lash in spec and you'll be good to go. PS, sorry to read about your motor bummer[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

i don't have shim under bucket and mine gets reved a lot. i think i read dsmike doesn't run shim under bucket, and i think i saw he runs hugh cams. plus the shims are easy to find and not hard to adjust.
