Built 360 Having a Tantrum

How do you check if it's twisted? I guess it's my untrained eye that I don't see it.

Well we tried to take #1s valve springs off and couldn't compress them with your overhead valve tool or the clamp type tool. They worked on my stock 360 springs so I guess they need way more force to compress. He's gonna take it to class (automotive student) and see if there's any other tools he can use on it. I'll tell him to check the clearance from retainer to guide.
