Basically you just unbolt the bearing caps. If it's on a 7 or 900 series you also need to remove the distributor. The little dampers on the end of the valve stems are easy. If you want to to the stem seals you need to remove the valve springs. I've never tried it in situ on a B230 engine but it may be a bit of a giggle given how recessed they are. Anyone?

Regards


Pete
