Tbh, with the shims, i always suggest to customers that the heads are rebuilt then have them in the workshop to shim them up. Saves calculating, ordering shims, not getting them quite right, reordering etc....
Also allow for new 1/2 rings on the closing shims. About a quid each, 2 per valve...

When you say heads rebuilt what work is carried out?
