Your local shop should have them, I would guess. I don't know much about the shim and bucket type valves though.

You can find the hot cams shim kit on ebay for about $68. That's about the best deal you will find.

That's not quite as bad, but I'm with †2005 400ex†, I'll stick with the rocker/push-rod valve train. :D
