Yes the shims are used to adjust the injectors so that they all "pop" at
the same pressure.  I don't know exactly what that pressure is supposed
to be or how much variance is acceptable between injectors, but there
are specs for that and a diesel injector shop can do that work.  You can
also do it yourself if you have or build a pop tester.
