Hey Chris,
Just a quick thought,
What material are you having the shims made of? The reason I ask is that I have just pulled the head on my my L28 280c (as it seemed to have a head/gasket leak. I had fitted a ACL 1.5mm shim when I did the turbo conversion 2 or so years ago. It seems the head shim has acted as a sacrificial anode and coroded quite badly around the water jackets into the cylinders. I had run quality coolant/inhibitor and the block is well earthed.
Are you using stainless steel?
Anyways,
G O T H E D A T!!
