I had to use a shim for my water pump about 8 years ago.. Somewhere I found someone who made water pump shims for the AMC v8.. . The water pump started leaking and I got a new pump. Now it needs maybe up to 1/8 spacer to correct my pulley alignment. The Mr Gasket and Spectre spacers do not seam to fit.. Do these spacers still exist?

i bought this one https://www.amazon.com/Airtex-AW3401H-Engine-Water-Pump/dp/B01LRED1I0(This is how you make money on selling Amazon) not from amazon but Rockauto for maybe $45 The previous which was a GMB with the anticavition disc that needed the 1/16 shim to get pulley aligned. .. This Airtex pump needs 2 shims.. Its seams it would be easier to just find another shim. I did find some from CVF that might work.. But its not the perfectly engineered one i have.. they might have to do....
