What type of valve spring compressor do you use? The head I got from scrappy has a big gouge in it, probably from the valve spring compressor. I have three different kinds an none of them will work good on this head.

Ya. I should of sent it back, but that'S a P.I.T. A. I just Planed a few thousands off. It will increase the compression a little. The valves are probably to big for this little head the valve faces are very thin on the edges. If they hold out to the abuse I'm gonna give them I'll be surprised. I got the valves out by making a tool. I cut two slots in the opposite sides of a 17mm socket put a screwdriver type handle an it. worked good getting them out. but getting them back in is a little more difficult. Trying to overcome the spring pressure with one hand and installing the small keepers with the other.
