You use a tool that takes place of your valves and you cut reliefs in the pistons to allow for larger lift camshafts.

yes it is a bitch. just finished mine up actualy. I cannot see how anyone can do this with all the ac stuff still on the car as the passenger side is crowded because of it. but the passenger side was a piece of cake.
