This list is not all-inclusive. Not all areas will apply to all engines and/or builds.<br> {{Note1}}There is no substitute for physically measuring critical areas like piston-to-valve clearances or valve spring installed height and coil bind. For those measurements, do not rely solely on published figures.[[File:Spring clearance diagram1.jpg|thumb|upright=3|Valve spring clearances.
