I finished up the the Valve spring upgrade on the Passenger side tonight - went well until the Valve Spring tool bolt started to strip out.

I don't know if I was tightening it too hard or what - but I was just using hand tools and the nut locked up on the threads and called them.

I ended up using a bunch of washers to cover up the stripped part - and I finished the side. I contacted the seller and he is sending me another bolt/nut.

I will start on the driver side when I get the replacement parts - now for a pic:
