Have any of you used one of these?
can go in a drill press or arbor press.
There are a few on the market.
If so, did it seem to read correct?
And how big are they?

I have an old Goodson I've used for years...don't know exactly how accurate it is....I think it's pretty close. it's a good tool to check consistency across a set of springs.
Thank you, I’d appreciate that.
Like you mentioned, not looking for dead on ***** accurate. But would like to make sure my springs are all close to the same. And compare to a couple other sets I have here.
I keep looking for a good old classic floor standing drill press. Not sure how I’ve managed all these years w/o one.
Of course Goodson doesn’t make that anymore.
Did dome further studying.
The Proform units have shitty reviews.
The speedway Motors has good reviews. So I think I’ll get one coming.
They actually suggest using a hyd press.
My nextdoor neighbor has a nice drill press.
I try to follow up with results, good or bad. I know how frustrating it is to end up at dead ends when looking for info.
I rechecked the AFR spring specs, and I was correct, they have lost 20+ lbs.
These PAC 1207x Springs are good to .700” lift. I think they will work fine at .610” lift. With the heavier valves and ultra heavy YT rockers, needs good springs.
