Hi
If you have a 1GR-FE engine the valve clearences cold are Intake .15 to .25 mm(.006 to .010 in)
Exhaust .29 to .39mm ( .011 to .015 in). If out record reading lifters are replaced no shims and dealer is your source. This is a major job lots of stuff to take off and cams are removed to get at lifters.
If you want instructio click on link at bottom of post and you can get Mitchell on demand.
Hope this helps
