ok, so discovered a new fav this weekend :D the kent moore ecotec bolt on overhead valve spring compressor tool :D

let me change out valve springs and seals without pulling the head :D


although the kent moore timing tool was a bit of a let down...it let something move and now the timing is about 1 link out and is not right...so now i have to retime the WHOLE thing
