that's a picture of the lsx intake I think there's some good suggestions in the "tools of the trade" forum

 

DEFINITELY save yourself some heartache..... get the MORE Performance tool.. i got mine from Thunder Racing. Ask for Paul or Jason. I used an extension/breaker bar to get the rear ones

goodluck

 

i woulndt use the more performance tool, the aluminum is too soft and can leave shavings

this is the one i made to do the valve springs, works great, you can either use a stock rocker arm bolt or a threaded rod with a nut to tighten it down

plus its free

I used the MORE performance tool for all my spinrgs EXCEPT the back 4!!! It would not work since the tool would not stay centered over the valve stem (do to the entension needed to get back there), so I could not get the keepers on to save me life.

I used a basic "crank" style spring compressor for the rear 4. It was pretty small, so it fit well. It was actually an old Chrystler valve spring tool, but it fit well.

Good luck.

I bought the LSM tool from SD. Works great but a little spendy. Buy it with a couple of buddies and share the cost.

thanks for the help
