timing chain/cam chain replacement.

Me too, I´m thinking I might have left oil, or something inside the valve bucket that makes this gap smaller.
No other choice but to dissassemble again, and look back at them again.

Now you bring this pic back, it´s the cylinder #4, exhaust valve right with an original 17,8 gap, has now 0 gap.
Me too, I´m thinking I might have left oil, or something inside the valve bucket that makes this gap smaller.

That's the kind of stuff that seems to happen with me frequently. Usually ends up doubling or tripling my job time. I've learned to pencil things onto my calendar that way!

It will all be OK in the end. I´m sure.

New update. I know it´s been a long time, but somehow work keeps getting in the way...
I uploaded the shim calculation excel tool, and I was still getting ridiculous readings... I needed smaller and smaller shims every time (but not 1,85, more like 1,05 or so). It didn´t make sense.
Only a few days ago I realized that I was inputting shim value as 0,185mm, rather than 1,85mm. That was the problem.
I took the cams off again (yes, yet again) and have just received the new shims. Things should be straightforward from here. I will upload the shim tool again; and repost on the results.
Regards,
C.
