Re: Valve spring work-around.

I would think the valve could bend doing it that way. Rope or use a leak down tester to pressurize the cylinder you are removing the springs from. Snap-on sells a tool that bolts to the cam caps to press down on the spring one at a time, I am sure some place would sell one for cheap. Block all the drain passages from the head to the block with something to avoid have a keeper find its way into the oil pan. Or pull the head, but that cost money a little time at this point.
