how much are you thinking?

According to the tool, I am 0.01-0.02mm away from spec.. ie IN by 0.01-0.02... and I don't see how I'm going to make up for that?

It seems that the movement of the contact patch is opposite of pinion movement.. in my first photo, with zero shims, the contact patch on the drive side is right out near the heel.
And as shims are added, pulling the pinion further away from the CW, the contact patch moves toward the toe.
