Default Where to find valvetrain shims?

I'm looking for somewhere to buy shims to set up the lifter preload. I have some .040's and would like some .010's, .020's, and .030's so I can get it exactly where I want it. I'll be ordering 7.35 pushrods from Thunder in the AM so maybe they will have them. Thanks.

mcmaster.com has a nice selection. Just do a search on "arbor shims"
