Make sure you change you valve springs to 60 lb. springs.

iv heard of people having problems geting the valve springs in, what is the best way to do this.

bulthisl

They are easy if you have the right spring compresser.
#5-#6 are a little tight.
Cover the opening with a rag so not to accidently drop a keeper down in engine.
Magnets are a great tool for this.
Just make sure each cyl. is at TDC before taking keepers out.
And that you Tq. head bolts back correctly.

where do i get a spring compressor?

bulthisl

I'll have to look at the shop but I think mine is a lisle brand.

fast 5.9

I've found the KD 2078 to be the easiest one to use & fit in at the back cyl. You should get one for less than $30.00
