Me but I retired about 12-13 plus years ago.....LOL. I taught Hank Blakenship but he passed away. I think your dad used to do it??? Jim Woods has emailed me a few times to get together for a teaching session but he never followed up on it. Its not hard to do but its a giant pain in the butt. Especially on newer cars. I look for classes that need this done to go away soon. It seems that no one cares to do the job anymore. To time consuming and to much work. NHRA stopped in 1986.
LIMITING VALVE SPRING PRESSURES WOULD PUT A LIMIT ON HOW WILD DURATION AND OVER LAP COULD GET AND STOP THE CRAZY EXPENSIVE LIFTER BS.......EASY TO CHECK BUT I DOUBT IT WILL HAPPEN. Its all ancient history.
