20 valve spring compressor (better than the one on vfaq)

[2.4 turbo Hyped]

This is an easy to make valve spring compressor and it works nothing short of perfect on dsm heads. All one needs is an 8 inch c clamp and a 7/8 inch deep socket. I got both of these items at home depot for just under 20 bucks.

I used a bench grinder to create the opening in the socket and welded it to the c clamp. Works like a dream!!

I just did all the valve seals on my head in under an hour. This thing is worth the 20 bucks!! (head off of engine)

It doesn't work if the head is on the block, does it?
