Going to replace the valve springs.

Is this a job that can be done by taking the heads off with the engine in still?

Took my heads off as I wanted to rebuild them at the same time but Peter has a tool so you can do them in place I think .

I'd recommend taking the heads off as the valve seats are likely to need some TLC if you're going to push the engine harder andy.
