COMP Cams Spring Shim .060 X 1.480

Starting with a .060 inch thickness and a 1.480 inch outside diameter, these valve spring shims from COMP Cams are made from heat-treated shim stock. This material choice helps them stand up to the demands of radical camshaft lobes. Their primary job is to equalize the installed height of your valve springs, which is crucial for consistent valve train operation. Having all your springs at the same height ensures they are all under the correct tension, preventing issues like valve float or excessive wear.

When you're rebuilding an engine or upgrading your camshaft, getting the valve spring installed height just right is important. These shims are a straightforward way to achieve that uniformity across all your springs. They fit right onto the spring seat, providing a solid base for the valve spring to sit on. While kits are also available, these individual shims are perfect if you just need to make a small adjustment on one or two springs.
