Default ETP heads and valve spring compressor?

Is there one that works? I have the heads set up for a solid roller, and I'm planning for future spring swaps. Thanks.

The tim's tool worked fine for me... although I didn't install 700 open springs, but around 450.

callies crank, rods
diamond pistons, total seal rings
ARP main, side main, head studs

ETP 245 heads

Beck intake
Custom direct port N2O by Scott Frey @ American Speed Center in York, PA
HSW Stand alone fuel cell


Moroso oil pan, oil filter relocation with HP4 size filter

Kooks 1 7/8, 3" y pipe, single 4" with Magnaflow race muffler

Deciding between a TH400 or staying T56 with a dual disk set up.

that is going to be one mean *** set-up! I will ask mike what he had to do to make the intake work in the morning. Go TH400, you will never regret it. With spraying you just hold on!! Talk soon, maybe I will have my numbers also!
