I am in a bit of a pickle with rocker arm reassembly on my 65 CA77.
When putting the pins back in I found there are two different sizes (and that I had accidentally gotten two mixed up).

I was planning ...

I was able to remove the valves with a tool that I made using the designs you posted from an 8" C-clamp and a piece of 1" diameter PVC pipe. One of the intake valve was seemingly stuck and I managed to bend it just slightly when removing it. It still slid out but not really smoothly so I will ...
