i need a spring compressor to assemble the valve guide assemblies before installing in the block...i bid on one on e-pay and got outbid...haven't seen any in a catalog,maybe i'm not looking at the right ones...is there anywhere you could just buy one? does anyone specialize in flathead tools? i don't want to break the bank becauase i hope i'll only need it once,i've never built a motor before and am just building this hot rod...don't plan on making a career out of it...i bid 90 bucks ..thanks alot
Macs has USA and Import, Speedway has import only. The import is OK, I bought one cuz I was tired of loaning out my 1957 original and always having to chase it down. Now I dont care if the import walks.
Mac's website is http://www.macsautoparts.com/ Go for the domestic one. It's something like $40. --Matt
