Well it loooks like I’ll be starting with addressing the valves in my 41 coupe 110..going through engine with an experienced mechanic..who advised me to start with valves before I get to rings and bearings as I may have to pull engine based on what happens with valve condition …so I’m wondering what type of spring compressor will work well on the 41 245 engine and where I could get one…i see a few old ones on eBay but sure of the dimensions I need…? Thanks for any help..this page has been a life saver!!!

I use the large C-type that are actually for V8 engines and it works well but others use a different type. There are other threads here on this site discussing it.

Ok ,, I tried search engine but could not find tool info tks

I found this Blue Point CF-12 on FB Market Place. Worked great on my 53 Cavalier's 327.

Ok that is all in chamber…tks… I think I need the c type on the flathead

The 53 327 is a flathead
