For both the intakes i had 178 shimsin there and for both exhaust i had 175 shims

Rear Cylinder
Intake - Both are 0.063 (use 165 for both)
Exhaust - Both are 0.178 (use 165 for both)

For the intake i had one shim at 172 and the other 175 and for the exhaust i had one shim at 170 and the other 172

Now if I've done me sums right you only need to buy 5x165 shims because you can already have 2x175 and 1x170.
