Re: 420a Rebuild - Ongoing Advice

Question:

Can someone point me to the brand (name) or link
to a Valve Spring compression tool for the valves on this head. The one I have (which I used on the engines I overhauled by in the 80s will not work).

These valve springs look like they have very little room for any tool.

Also, I am waiting on a HAYNES MANUAL I purchased for engine specs.

Whats is the max. oil clearance allowed for the Crank-to-Rod bearings and Main Crank bearings?

I just checked the Crank-to-Rod bearings tonight and I am getting .0015" to .0017".

Thanks....
