Default I changed out my valve springs and...

It wasnt all that hard. I used the crane cams valve spring tool because that was whats everyone on here recommended. I ran into a few snags though. As I was going to put a retainer on one of the two springs I was about to compress I dropped it. Of all places that bitch rolled into the openings behind the head bolts. . I seriously thought that i was screwed. Somehow my buddy Ricky got it out. Needless to say I owe him dinner. The job took all day as I did take a lot of breaks. I replaced the old 918s with the new revised 918s becasue I had busted one, didnt drop the valve. While I was at it I also paited the valve covers and the coil pack brackets red. It looks really good. The best tool anyone can use for this project is the crane tool without a doubt. to crane cams
