Re: Easiest way to get the springs/valves off head.

Or you can do like we did at the SO last year with no tool. You have one big guy push down on the valve spring retainer with a big set of pliers and one guy putting in the two little keepers. Obviously the same method can be used to take them out. It's a bitch but it gets the job done in a pinch. You can also compress the lifters(HLA)'s with a bottle jack and the bottom of your trailer, but that's another story.

Headwork in the Econolodge parking lot at 3am, I should write a book about it.
