Message	It says the valve lash is adjusted with shims, wont you have to continually re-adjust them as they wear or warp from hot/cold cycles? I've been told you have to do that on old push-rod V8's with solid lifters but dont know if the principle is the same. I do know that it's easier to adjust a rocker arm than to re-shim the lifters though.
