Since Detroit Tool does'nt make these anymore, can some one pls recommend a quality on head valve removal tool?

LSM and the other mob ( I forget their name) don't make a tool for a Hemi with Indy heads.

If there aint one, I might fab one like the old Detroit Tool design.

Hopefully theres one out there.....

I had already made a deal on one from Hemi Allstate.

Now you just need to get one of these to keep the valves in place while the spring is off.

Ahh the power of Moparts...thanks Sammy and none too soon !

I have air and I've used a rubber tube to help out in retaining the valve.

Thanks fellas !
