VW Link pin question

Hi Guys.

I have to shim a set of VW link pins this weekend but I haven't got the arrangement chart after measurement.
I know they have less shims than a 356 so assume that my chart won't work.

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Ahh yes shims.

Sorry Mark, that's what happens when I get phone calls on a day off

I would forget my knapper if it wasn't attached.

No worries Paul I worked round it in the end now I have a stack of washers

but lower compression , not that you would have noticed that at Silverstone yesterday

I was going with the " Drive it like you stole it " seamed to work
