Re: valve spring tool
I'm looking at something from this company. They are expensive, but I have three that don't do the job on my sbf.
http://lsmproducts.com/ The guy who built the Super 10 here has one.

Re: valve spring tool
You want the best, Logan Smith Machine (LSM).
T&D Machine and Moroso also sell similar tools, both not equal. |

Re: valve spring tool
I have been extremely happy with my LSM tool. Expensive, but I feel it is worth it.
I've never seen or used the Buxton.

Re: valve spring tool
None of the LSM products I have are for Small Block Chevies but it is all first class.
Well worth the money. Bill |

Re: valve spring tool
