Newbie member here. I was thinking of removing head insitu for repair. Is that naive? Series 3 1974 roadster. Seems to need a valve seat repair. I am assuming over heat. Rest of engine is all behaving so I figured take it off, repair as needed. And reinstall. Use of that removal tool seems safe logical method to use. Is there a reason to pull the engine for what seems pretty straight forward. Obviously, failure to remove head will lead to greater issues. I was hoping it would come along nicely. Rick

Hi Baxtor, can I ask if this was a pre he head or are they both the same? Did you build this and use it, wondering how accurate it was as I'm looking to do the same. Many thanks, D

Fits all V12 heads. Have used it many times.
I do have the CAD files available if you want. If so PM me.
