Icon6 Valve spring compressor

Does anyone know if there is a valve spring compressor out there for the b-series engine that dont require you to take the head off. I need to change my stem seals.

You can use this style of spring compressor for the valve springs and you can do this with the motor in the car still. you'll just need compressed air or string to to keep the valves from dropping (which would suck huge ***** if they dropped....)



mine was done while motor was in the car still:

There's another just for the DOHC VTEC engines that screws down where the main caps are and screws down to compress the spring. http://www.euroexportinc.com/product...7&reviews_id=1
