Frank I can't remember it being that bad a job..
I remember we had a tool that was like a long wide open vice grip that we wounld reah in and it would hold the top of the valve and compress the spring and the retainers would drop out.
Don't forget to lap ,(with a lap stick,i.e a piece of round dowling and a rubber suction cup on one end)your valves before you grind your clearances on your valve stems..
Here is a picture from the MB-F1,The bible when it comes to our craft..
I have all the manuals available and am just down the street..
