...Yeah, when we changed the valvesprings on James' car it woke it right up. Just... MMMWWUUUhhhahahahahah... change them out; how hard could it be?

I HATE that car right now. And only four more cylinders to go.

I think I'll get some TFS heads from Love and run in "The X"

[AI#97]

[GlennCMC70]

using "L" shaped compressor and air compressor adapter in the spark plug hole????

using "L" shaped compressor and air compressor adapter in the spark plug hole????

Yup; specially shortened by cutoff wheel to clear the stupid cowl overhang.

Since I'm a pansy I had to drop the exhaust and pull the manifolds to get me some room.

oh... I forgot... 4th gen!!! I did a tune-up on my neighbors 4th gen the other day... all day job, lost my ass on that deal

[AllZWay]

I actually just turned the engine over cylinder by cylinder and used a small spring compressor. It did take several hours, but definitely not the worst job ever.

Got'em changed... finally.

OK big boy, how long to change 'em on a LT1 car?

[GlennCMC70]

w/ or w/out heater core in place?
an LT1 w/out the core is much easier than an LS1 w/ it in place.

I bet shorter than 3-weeks. :P

Whatever... heater core in/out, stock brake booster. I'm counting my loose change.

HEY, MOSTLY!

Don't make me come to The Duece and put a "Hallett" on you.
