special tools

ok, so discovered a new fav this weekend the kent moore ecotec bolt on overhead valve spring compressor tool

let me change out valve springs and seals without pulling the head


although the kent moore timing tool was a bit of a let down...it let something move and now the timing is about 1 link out and is not right...so now i have to retime the WHOLE thing

i used the timing tool which is SUPPOSED to keep the timing (the GM one, not zip ties ) and aparently it didnt
it ran, just idled wierd and wasnt happy about it...i could tell right off it was the timing

The greatest tool ive ever used and it cost under 20$

....12v Impact wrench! yea plugs into cigar lighter and takes lugs off without problem, Also used it to swap out my suspension.

 

[ff_drift_lol]

dude...what'd you buy that thing at pep boys? get that shit outta here

 

[Cobalt Tom]

actually that is kinda cool

 

[ff_drift_lol]

i'd rather use my cordless 18v snap on.

 

[ford sucks]

thats no tool
you have to get the 14v snapon impact then throw^^^ in the garbage if it hasn't broke yet

 

[ff_drift_lol]

i have the 18!

 

[ford sucks]

i needed the 3/8 drive so i went with the 14v and settled for 230 ft lb torque

 

[ff_drift_lol]

still a great gun
