Put a new cam in the '66 454; am now changing out the valve springs. First time I've done this, and it's going slow. Any tricks to keeping valves in closed position while compressing the spring? Seems it's more "luck of the draw" whether the stud-mounted compressor I'm using will press the valve
Hi Michael... a few places make a piece that screws into your spark plug
hole on the head, and you hook a compressor up to it, filling the
cylinder with compressed air
keeping the valves up... by far the easiest way to do it... I think they
may even sell them at Harbor Freight... I'm sure
