I've got the Crane double valvespring tool, push rod length checker, compressed air to hold the valves up, but no tool to hold the lifters up. I've never used a tool to hold the lifters up. Spin the cam a few times before you pull it out and the lifters stay in their cups (at least this is how it is on Vettes).

Yep I made it. Only got 2 passes in. The stock trans is slipping badly. I knew it wasn't going to last long. First pass blew the tires away and second pass went 10.89 @ 125 with a 1.56 60ft on motor. I didn't even attempt to try to spray it with the trans acting the way it was. I think I have an FLT Level 5 trans lined up, got to call tomorrow on it. I think the car has some 10.60s in it on motor once I get the trans issue fixed.
SIC LSX was there taking some pics, I hope he was able to get a good one.
