Has anybody found a source for .160in lash pads? Seems that they are rare as hens teeth. I am at the point of having the stock pad valve stem indent welded up and ground to spec.:disappoin

You'd do better to buy a .170 and sand it down. Use 320 emery paper on a glass or marble base to keep it perfectly flat. It takes a while to take off .010. Guy

That is a better idea for sure. I may try to sand one of the stock pads, just to calculate how old I will be when done.He,he... At least I could get my engine put back together. Thanks Diseazd

I've done it.......started in February......just finished ( one ). Call Courtesy Nissan .....they surely should be able to source some. If not, take some .170 or .180's to your machine shop......they shouldn't charge too much. Guy

I will give them a call. MSA and Rebello saying have been back ordered from Japan for around 8 months.

I reluctantly will refer you to this due to the great Tony D's posts ( FYI I detest that site and their administration's "ways"): http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/68381-lash-pad-source/

Thanks Blue. Looks like the best route, buy big and cut down.

They are being made custom now by Brian (azcarbum) on hybrid. This is his site. http://www.zccjdm.com

Thanks zKars.

Shadbolt in Vancouver ground my cam and had no problem supplying.180 lash pads, fyi

You can buy .180s all day long, as I did and had them milled down to the .160 that I needed. All said and done, they ended up costing aprox. 17.00 each.
