supertech valve springs installation

has anyone installed the 78lbers with the head on the car? im looking for the compressor, found the 4572 model pictured here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OTC-U...Q5fAccessories

but this appears to be for head off

but i wanna know if anyone has any experience with installing these springs with the head on the car.. did u just use a universal compressor?

Here you will want an air compressor and a leakdown tester fitting or something to screw the hose into the cylinder to keep it pressurized and the valves up.

Also make sure you don't drop any keepers into an oil passage.

Good Luck
