Double star classic 40 head shims

[Edmond Bridant]

Anyone know where I can find head shims for a DS40 classic? I tried Brodak, but they no longer stock them. Tom Dixon no longer seems to be in business. I thought maybe Brodak 40 shims would work, but they could not verify that.

Tom Dixon is still in business.  It is the DS line of engines that are no longer in business.  Production of the DS line ended some time ago, maybe 10 years or so?

I was wondering why you need head shims for the DS 40.  Do you have a DS 40 that is running poorly?
