Gonna be replacing the springs when I install a new cam and I'm looking for a compressor that can be used in the limited space under the cowl. Who has done this and what did you use?

Thanx
Re'

 

thunder racing sells a tool that crane makes. go to the tool section under the LT1 section and scroll down.

 

Mine was just a screw style from Autozone. Was @ $25 and worked fine for single coil springs. Was VERY ROUGH on the hands though. It fit under tha call just fine.

 

I don't really want to spend a fortune on another tool I'll never use agian. I've got too many of those all ready. I like the Autozone Idea. Looked at a few of those on Ebay for like $10. Figure they will be OK for a one time use.

 

Thats the tool i have it works great but its very expensive

 

What kind of springs are you going with? those cheap clamp ones suck for dual valve springs.

 

There was just a thread on this like 2 days ago in LT1 tech. It will have all the info you could ever want.
