    I am considering purchasing some bare heads here that are polished and whatnot.

    They retain stock valve sizing and stuff which I prefer (despite what others say) due to the increase velocity and keeping the chamber not shrouded. You DO NOT need a 2"+ valve on a 3.78" bore. lol

    Anyway, how difficult is it to assemble a set of heads? I'd use the stock valves, Comp 918s, prolly their Ti retainers, 7° locks. Is it a basic assemble for them or is there some trick that I'm not aware of?

    I'd need a valve spring compressor also nay?
