    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

where to buy tappet gauge set

I found mine (.04mm and up) at Advance Auto, which is Kragen and Checker in some places.

I'm not too concerned about the lack of a .03mm blade -- if it's that tight, I'm going down one shim size anyway.
I too have a set that goes down to .04. And I too change them down a size if its that tight. Might as well cos you'll be doing it soon enough anyway.

Picked mine up at Z1enterprises.com, but then was in Autozone the other day, an noticed that they now carry the same set. They didnt before. Jerks.
 
A lot of places sell a set that has .038mm, .051mm, .063 and .076 and a bunch of bigger ones.
They are inch sizes but the metric equivalents are printed on the blades too.

I try to get the intakes between .038 and .063, the exhausts between .051 and .076, and if not then looser is better than tighter.

A better set with .03, .04, .05 etc. would be nice but then so would shims every .02 or so.
 
I bought the Snap on set on line for less than $6 delivered. Works well. Thanks Nessim. Ray
