couple questions about this..

- how long does a spring install usually take to do?

- what are peoples tips/tricks for making sure the valves dont drop while doing this?

3-6 hours depeding on if you suck at life and air up the cylinders with the compressor and that will keep the valves from dropping

Jon has an air fitting that screws into the sparkplug hole. AIr hold up the valves. He also has the spring compressor tool. He has all you need to do it. Once you get the hang of it it goes faster. Probably take 3-4 hours to do everything.

Thats how we did mine. Actually, I only did one, he did the rest. I could have done them all, but I '' Suck at life'' and Jon does them way fast.
