Exciting! I had to use the smaller of the two shims on mine as well. Your truck is coming together nicely.
Thanks Nick. I was a little panicked when I turned the key to 'on' and got nothing. Once we figured out it was a bad ground (thanks to powder coating) and it came to life I was super excited. I hit the key about five times before I had fuel at the rail. Can't wait to see if she will start.
