Title kinda says it all. I am trying to find the correct shim diameter for the 16 valve 750 (1981 750L). Thanks.

Lol wow I feel like a bonehead. Thanks all. I guess I'd be wise to take off the valve cover then ask questions next time.Comment

Only for a couple days.Originally posted by Allie View Post
Back when I ran with friends from the JJC, we used to take the new kid out snipe hunting, and then snipe at him with BB guns until he found one of us. The guy who'd just moved back from Israel was really good at it, Mike and Jakob ended up duct taped to trees and their rifles used to snipe the snipers. Snipe hunts were awesome beck int he day.Comment
