Liver shunt is still possible with that number even with no symptoms. Did the vet mention anything about a Protein C test?

If you mean SAMe (Denosyl, Denestra), yes, it is highly recommended.

You have never seen any symptoms?
Lethary, GI problems, Polyuria, polydipsia, inappetance, staring, drooling, seizing, circling, head pressing, medication reactions, UTIs?

I will have to ask about the protein C test. And the amino acid supplement is Zentanyl (sp??)

No I have never seen any of the symptoms you mentioned at all.

Is there anything I should be changing about his diet/everyday life?
