Re: Valve springs? (sleepin91teg)
All you have to is get a deep socket that will push the retainer down without touching the valve. Just put a little back behind it. The keepers will pop right out. Literally takes about 1 second to do. Don't do this with the head on the block. There is a chance of losing a keeper. Putting them back together is not as easy
