Default WHERE to buy a good Spring Compressor ??

I know that there was a post on how to make one... I have also seen some offered on sponsors' websites.....(and they are privey) but I know that someone purchased one from SEMA for like $15 and it work just fine....I'm basicaly looking for a spring compressor that would be convinient to use for LS1 Engine and relatively inexpensive...

I found one on e-bay...do you think it will do the job ? Will it fit the springs... ?

Adam

I bought a good one from Napa for 15 bucks. It's just a metal bar with a bolt hole in it. It works great, easy to use and doesn't require five hands to operate it. The one on eBay will be a pain in the ***. Here are come pictures of the one that I bought.
