Hi Jay,

Yes, I shimmed between the mounting bracket and the = baffling to=20 make up for the single thickness of metal baffling vs. the double = thickness=20 where the baffling overlaps. I don't remember if I used washers or = made=20 shims out of aluminum, but I shimmed wherever it needed it so that the = distance=20 between the magnets and the sensors was within spec over the full = rotation of=20 the crankshaft and so that the mounting bracket didn't look like it = could=20 vibrate. I found a build photo that shows I wrote, "shim .033" on = the=20 baffling above the mounting bracket, with an arrow pointing to the=20 bracket.

Best,
