Kinetik Valve Spring Compressor

[smokem]

Has anyone ever used this spring compressor on there car or see any reasons why it wouldn't work on our cars? I know about the ones you can make on VFAQ and the Miller one. Just curious if this one would work or not?

Looks like it would work. Don't expect the compressor to hold the valves shut though, didn't for me. Couldn't get the rope trick to work either.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Well i want to change the valve stem seals without pulling the head off. To tkelly, how much psi were you shooting in the cylinders? I don't mind use the rope in the cylinders to hold the valves, but it just seem like it would be a whole lot quicker to pressurize the cylinder,change the seals then slide it over to the next one.
