In a few months im going to be installing a crower stage 3 high lift camset as well as a set of springs and Ti retainers. I just recieved my valve spring compressor tool (for ford modulars) from OTC this week. I was wondering if anyone had any pointers for doing this with heads still on the truck?
The cam swap itself doesnt bother me, what worries me is if I drop a valve. I really dont feel like yanking the heads on this tub. Ill do what I have to do, but im hoping to bring the truck to the shop and have this done in a weekend.
I hear people are feeding compressed air into the cylinder to keep the valve up. Im curious how this is working for ya? and how much pressure did you use?
Thanks,
Storm
