Default Valve spring removal tool

Is there any place in Houston to get a valve spring removal tool from? I have the tool to do them while the heads are off the car but need one to do them with the heads on.

Man, that's just a simple little plate. Mine are old school type.

James, is Sheila going to win the championship this year? Or Brian? You know Jay is putting a big block in the Nova. Suni and I are not going to be there that much this year if at all. Not until they go back to saturday only racing. That 2 day crap is b.s. Once we get done, it takes us 4 hours before we are in bed on sunday nights.

It is simple but it works good especially for the $$$.

Bobby- We should be dangerously competitive this year. All 4 Camaros will be dialed in and it is anyones game. Jay will have his hands full if he lines up with any of us.

We hope to see ya at the track.
