: Which tool is the easiest(valve spring compressor) 67ragtp Jul 22nd, 04, 6:59 PM Im going to attempt to pull the springs on my 540 with out removing the heads. I really want this to go smooth, can you guys lend some opinions on which one to purchase. I already own the one that acts like a pry bar and uses the rocker stud as a pivot point. Was hoping to find something a little better. And should there be any problems with compressing springs for a roller in the 200 to 225lb seat pressure range. Thanks Rich Pat Kelley Jul 22nd, 04, 10:20 PM Moroso (http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=MOR-62370&N=120%20400105%204294925139%204294925138%20303551) makes one that screws to the stud that works very well. It cams over to hold the spring while you remove the keepers.

Definitely go with the moroso tool or equivalent.I just changed mine with the old pry bar type,it was a bit of a pain but it worked ok.It would have been much easier with the moroso.My springs are 260 @ 1.950.I didnt use an air compressor either the pc seals kept the valves up while I changed them.
