Re: I've done it w/o dampening...        

The reason for needing many thin feeler gauge leaves is so you can create the exact thickness you want. Some people like to set the clearances on the loose side of average spec, some like it at average spec, and I've heard that racers set them up tight to get maximum duration/lift and don't worry about seat wear since they will be back inside the cylinder head soon anyway.

I live 15 miles west of Austin on Lake Travis in a little community called Briarcliff. Lots and lots of good back roads around without going near Austin itself.
