IPA7877 Long Piston Stop can be used on all Hemi type engines when shop air is introduced into a combustion chamber for the purpose of valve seal replacement. It can be screwed down into the combustion chamber on an adjoining piston in the down balance position to the cylinder being worked on. Up to 100 lbs per square inch of shop compressed air can be applied into cylinder at top of stroke with valves closed. This pressure holds the valves in place allowing the replacement of the valve stem seals without taking the engine apart.
