So I'm at the moment trying to assemble my heads. I have two different valve spring compressors. 1 is a old Sears Unit 1's a relatively new one from Napa. Neither are able to compress the Springs 210lb install. Does anybody have a recommendation for a spring compressor under $200?

 

What about the ProFrom 66832 ?

I just purchased the LSM SC-2000 unit and it was worth every Penny!!! I Broke a few different units prior. I Broke 2 of the ProForm 67605 and a BluPoint Air powered unit.

 

The one tool I'd reccomend for this is the Comp Cams or Powerhouse POW352001.

 

This one from Lingenfelter is under $200.

 

I just changed mine this past weekend and I used the trick flow one, I installed pac 660 titanium dual springs and also removed similar springs, the old ones weren't titanium.

 

Get this. I picked mine up at a rummage sale $10 from a vintage hotrodder

 

I have a set from Texas Speed and they work great when the engine is on the stand but when you're trying to replace valve springs in a 4th Gen. Fbody car, I prefer to have both hands free..

 

This is the one i use
