9 times out of 10 you don't need a shim with a good starter.I've always felt the shim was to compensate for the nose of the starter.I had some that the starter would be tilted laterally and no amount of shims would correct it.more so on starters with staggard bolt pattern

A large parts house, which i'm probably not allowed to mention here but begins with S, has the brace for under $10.  Which means other places probably have them as well.

i'll PM you.
