Get the IDs from thmotorsports.com and use one of the coupon codes that are floating around. I think they have the lowest deals around.

Another update.some parts and S&R Removal.

I checked for valve leaks with some water and found 2 bad valve stem seals..
VideoVVVVVV





VET Head gasket,SuperTech Valve Springs and titanium Retainers,Lisle 36200 S&R removal Tool,fuel Rail with complete fittings



First place a towel/sock under the valve to keep it from moving,Retainer Removal using Only the one part of the tool






Give it a nice whack with your standard House Hammer.



Magnet in the tool picks up the keepers.



Place keepers in new retainers Notice how the Rib in keeper is more to the top side thats how it should go in the Retainer.




I removed all the valves and ordered a new set of Supertech Valve stem seals


DE/Ve valve stem seals are the same got mine here:

I hand lapped my valves before I reinstalled them. Dom you should buy a valve master tool. Wait till you try to reassemble the the lisle. I did it once and will be buying the valve master if I have to do it again.
