T5 gearbox input bearing preload shim

Ok who can advise on where to get preload shims for the input shaft bearing on a cosworth T5 gearbox. (I believe they are the same at Falcon and commodore T5 bearings either world class or non world class gearboxes)
Ringing around Adelaide I hear all sorts of improvise solutions but surely there is the correct part available. I need a .92mm shim or shims to make up 0.92 (36 thou) to be confirmed.
Cheers

Justin

    I rebuild lots of T5s . If you reckon you need a .036" shim, i can help you out. I'm in Adelaide .. but arent you from Melbourne ?? Ring me on 0417 083 682. I have a pretty good range of original shims !  Mike
