"The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first."-Thomas Jefferson
Umm, it's been awhile since I rebuilt a 22re, so refresh my memory, but don't you have to remove the rocker assembly anyway to get the spring compressed to remove the keeper?
Don't pressurize the cylinders as there's nothing holding them down. Make sure the piston is at TDC for the valves you're working on. If the valve drops, it's recoverable with the piston at TDC.
Holding what down? Pressurizing the cylinder is proper. The idea is not to allow the valve to move at all. Ive done it this way on many different engines, and it works great. It's how most manuals tell you todo it. With your way its possible to drop, bend or damage the valve. My way their isn't.
