Default Shimming an LS tranmission?
A friend of mine said that it's recommended to shim a LS transmission because they tend to grind when shifting above 8k rpm's. Is this true? How does someone shim a LS transmission?

I don't know what shimming is either. He said breifly to shim the Ls tranny for rpm's above 8k. He didn't get into detail.
