Valve Seal Replacement
Hey Wishm.. And GTA-... You guys have been really helpful. Thanks....
How many PSI should the compressor be set to? Also any more tips before I attempt to perform the job this weekend. All replies are welcome.
Did any of you replace your rockers with aftermarket roller tip rockers? If so what would you recommed?

It doesn't take a whole lot of pressure to hold the valve up, but more pressure does take away the annoyance of accidentally unseating a valve trying to get the things unstuck. If I remember right, 20psi should do it. There's nothing wrong with pressure here though, high pressure won't hurt anything.
