Default Now that I know I need shim...

Now that I know I need a shim, does anyone know where to get it, what size etc? I have the RAM Alum flywheel that comes with the ls7 clutch when you buy it from SDPC (the nice kit they have for an awesome price, thank you guys again!!!).

Speed Inc sells some. I'm sure other vendors on the right do as well.

Well I have heard that an exact measurement is pretty vital, but I'd like to have one ordered before the car ever gets torn down. So I was wondering if anyone knew exactly what to get with my set up

Give Jason from Texas Drivetrain Performance a call. He has two different thickness shims. I ordered two of each when I did mine. Only used two of them but they are cheap enough. Also keep in mind that if you use more than one shim, you should use longer slave cylinder bolts. Any hardware store will have them.
