Check your tach feed out under the hood. I don't remember which wire it is off the top of my head.

What are you wanting to shim on a 5.0?

I've never shimmed rockers before. I've always used studmount rockers and normally set them up with .001-.002" lash. I've seen the shims, but I'm not familiar with adjusting pedestal mounts. Sorry.
