Easy Run Engine Test Stand

Had to order up a couple of radiator hoses from autozone, gotta go pick them up ....
Did a little more wiring...got the fuel pump done....wired in a electric water pump by adding another switch to the panel.
Need to get starter installed....everything is sitting there....

Now the problem I am having getting the inner springs out...these heads have titanium spring retainer, the valve spring removing is having issue slipping off the retainer as they are sloping off... the steel retainer are flat...
trying to figure out a work around.....tried to squeeze the head thinner...did not work...

Tomorrow problem....Going to Mopar at the Strip in a couple of hours....
