Default Valve lapping

I am in the process of changing heads on my 31 coupe. While the old head is off I am going to lap the valves. Got the keepers off and checked and cleaned the seats etc. I would also like to check the clearance. My question is about the springs. Nothing I can find talks about removing them (Andrew's book, service bulletins, this forum etc.). Is it necessary or can I just compress them to check clearance?
Thanks
Mor
