Default Re: First Flathead Build

Just get a "conventional" valve spring compressor, those rotators and locks will come right out.

This is how we install all the valves during the reassembly, with a spring compressor. Ours is air-operated but a hand one will get it done also!

Thanks, Gary in N.Y.

P.S. Here's a shot (again) of the compressor at work, makes life easy.
