Okay guys so I'm gonna be replacing my valve retainers in the next few weeks as I just hit 150,000km and I figure it's about time.
I have the 8 retainers and 16 keepers I need for the intake side on order from hardtopguy and hopefully they won't turn out to be backordered.
Does anyone have the following who would be willing to lend, sell, or rent to me?
-valve spring puller tool, modified (I think I saw in another thread that Ronac had sold his to someone; maybe they're done with it now?)
-fittings for compressor to pressurize cylinders
-feeler gauges to do the valve adjustment; the ones I got from Lordco were really weird to use and I'd rather use pre-modified (bent) ones
-Helms manual (is this available online?)

Well I have to see how many people are involved so I can ask them first
so the more the merrier, I will also speak to shops to see what they can quote us for re & re of the retainers
1. truong
2. dbchang
3. Ohkun
4. nori
5. legin_k (maybe)
