This weekend my 16 year old son and I installed a B cam in our 1992 normally aspirated 240 wagon. 6 valves were out of spec on the loose side. We didn't have the valve shim tool so we installed the cam, measured the clearances, and then removed the cam to change in the proper valve shim discs. A digital micrometer and the IPD shim kit made the job go well. This was the first time I've ever checked the valve lash on my Volvo 240. It was a good learning experience for both my son and I.

We took the wagon on a test drive and it seems to run well at high speeds/rpm.
