Sprocket alignment-how many shims are too many?

Was aligning the camshaft sprockets tonight and started with the base count of 4 shims on #4-6 and 3 shims on #1-3. I had to add one shim on the right side #4-6 to get it within spec. When I switched over to the left side # 1-3, I had to add 2 more shims to get within spec. Is there a limit to the amount of shims one should use? Is there a point where stacking shims to get within spec points to other problems?

TIA
