Thats what I said..lol. Is what it is. Breather took a lot too. It was just the standard Cometic set and a bone stock 97.

Well, unless the tip does not extend well thru the outer breather spacer, it'll be rattling around in the cam chest and the gears in there will be very unhappy, especially is the spacer is steel.

I’ve blue printed and assembled at minimum 35-40 Harley engines at this point in my life. Almost all solids and Shovel. I’ve probably done at least that many cam swaps. I’ve never seen any needing that much shim. But it is what it is. I didn’t measure wrong. The gasket isn’t thicker.. it’s just how this stock 97 was. The cam I installed was another EV27. Nothing different there.

Breather took the widest thickest spacer I had and its a touch on the sloppy side. The cam got two
the widest from two packs.
