i currently use a shim w/ my CAK-38, and i'll use it when i finally mount my Maze2.
do ppl really tighten the nuts down so the springs are fully compressed? thats pretty damn tight...id worry about flexing the MoBo (and cracking ur core) with them that tight.
oh, and you'll want to tighten the nuts down in a figure '8' pattern (top left, bottom right, top right, bottom left, etc).

I used the plastic (nylon nuts) and washers. WhenI mounted my Maze2 I indeed had the springs completely compressed.
I notice you stated here "Maze2" not 'Maze 3' Cyco, and where did you get your shim and what kind is it?
If my temps don't match of beat my Maze 2 with the current Maze 3 installation in a couple of days, I am going back to the maze2.
Maze2 is less likely to leak.
