Cylinder head removal

Was there ever a special tool that enabled valve clearance settings off the engine - a steel plate with holes for the valve heads and threaded holes for the head bolts? no special tools listed in the parts book. i know where there is such a plate ~ 1" thick.
 
Yes, there was. I remember seeing it in a book, if it wasn't in the parts book, then it must be in the workshop manual.

Yep.. got one in the shed for just that purpose. Hasn't been used in years, but will be as I'll be swapping the head on the auto at some point.
 
Since 2015, I have opened a number of threads in this forum with questions regarding my 2200 TC. Among others this one, after the engine dropped a valve seat. I'm now glad that after many years the car is fixed, and that I finally can drive it on the roads of southern Sweden in the spring. So glad it's finished :D
