Yep, I watched the tech video for how to shim them, I know myself well enough that I do not have the patience for that kind of detail work. I also realized that it doesn't matter, and just about every 3.5L trooper I have ever heard has the same tap, so no worries here.

I've often wondered if a competent motorcycle tech could do the valve adjustment if he/she also had access to the factory Isuzu VX valve adjustment tech videos to watch before starting the job.

I say that thinking back of the shim-in-bucket valvetrain system that was used in all of the large-bore inline-four Kawasaki street bikes I've owned over the years. 900 Eliminator, 1000cc Ninja ZX-10, and 1100cc Ninja ZX-11D.

They use them in v-6 Toyotas and some BMW motors. I had an E34 M5 that was set up like that. I had to pull the cam boxes so I measured the valves,pulled the boxes (including the camshafts) and re adjusted. Way easier than trying to compress the valves with the special tool.
