To all those that helped me with diagnosing my rough running velle...THANKS http://www.chevelles.com/forum/smile.gif

I kept the heads on the motor, and used a tip given to me from an earlier post regarding my trouble.

Tip was to remove the spark plug, drop a lenght of rope/cord into the cylinder and bring up the piston to TDC to hold the valves in place while you remove the springs.... Works like a charm and saves a whole lot of money http://www.chevelles.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Special Thanks to Randy Mosier, and a36chevy for hitting the nail on the head when they said its probably a broken spring.

Man, she is running like a Champ http://www.chevelles.com/forum/biggrin.gif , heck, better than a champ if there is such a thing

Thanks again

Very Respectfully
