Valve Spring Compressor

[Fordy]

Evening All,

Been searching for a valve spring compressor and I am still unsure as to the best one to get.

I have read on here that in order for them to work properly they require modification.

Is the best solution to buy a cheap one and modify it or are there tools that are sized correctly for the Z22se head.

Cheers

Also what are peoples opinions on DIY cylinder honing?

depends on the tool some do an ok job some are crap
they say break fluid as a lube when using it and even up down strokes you won't need many to glaze bust the bore count the same amount for each bore

before 80k mile z20net block


after 5 count in then out is 1 on each bore with a 2 sec hold at the top before removing
