Putting the heads back together
Tips, techniques...please help. When I get back to school next week, I will be starting the reassembly of my heads. They had a three-angle valve job, cleaned valves/heads, hardened seats, and bronze guides done. I'm new to this, so your suggestions on how to do it would help.

Re: Putting the heads back together (rainman69)
just got mine together last week..
not much to offer for tips, what year are they??
my valve spring compressor is not the best, it keeps slipping off, so I opted for umbrella seals rather than the O-rings.one less thing to try and put on with the spring mashed, one less chance to get your fingers smacked.
put them together the same way they came apart. rotators go on the exhaust valves, make sure there are no leftover parts :D
