Any info would be greatly appreciated. A fantastic and prosperous new year to you all.

I don't know if he knows about XR6 specifically, but he would find out. He is a genius and does a heap of racecar work.

The valve springs can be changed with the head on the block using a special tool, its a time consuming task and will take approx 5 hours to complete with the right tools, this task would be best performed by a competant mechanic.PeterAPS Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/8220-valve-springs-and-auto-mods/#findComment-83500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
