Valve Spring Compressor?????

Chad E532 · 12-26-2009, 04:55 PM

I am in need of a new valve spring compressor since my old stamped sheet metal compressor is not quite enough to pull in a 1.500 dual spring. So I am contemplating either going with the Proform 66832 or LSM SC-800. The SC 800 would be nice since I could use it on and off the engine, but it is on the spendy side. Does anyone have experience with either product? Or is there another one I should consider as well?
Thanks,
Chad

You'll buy no better spring compressors than those from LSM, nor deal with better people than Tim Smith.

Buy it and you'll never fix or replace it. Forget that Chinese copycat stuff.
