Default ls2 flywheel resurfaced, problems finding shim!!! please help

I just put in my ls7 clutch and ls2 flywheel about 4 months of driving ago.
I think a faulty master cyl. has caused excessive wear. Machinst took off 20 thousandths from the flywheel resurface and said i needed a 20 thou. shim for the clutch or rather flywheel. I dont know where to find one, is it standard etc....
The parts store said they had a chevy 350 standard one for 50 thou. i would assume too much?

PLEASE HELP WITH ADVICE

I found universal shims that would work in summit and jegs, both 30 thousandsths.
I have read and heard that .020 is the fine line for getting a shim or not.
Most people I have talked to have no idea, not too many ppl have experience with this i take it?

Well i ordered a standard gm shim for .025 which is a little more then what was taken off but Im guessing it will work. I am just going to put it in since i havent gotten an answer from fred beans or other.

You could always use a washer inbetween the slave and trans.
