This is the best one ever. It is designed to be used on the engine, but if you clamp the head to the table it works great. I JUST used it 3 minutes ago to check piston to valve clearance with my current cam so I can see what size roller I can go to. Comp Cams 5324
11.33 @ 118.46 on motor
10.75 @ 125.35 w/ a little spray

I have one of those and it worked fine on my PAC-1325 springs (over 700# compressed.)
I wish the cam lever on it was drilled overcenter so it would hold the spring compressed, but on mine you still have to apply some pressure to maintain the compressed position. From what I have seen it is pretty good for the price. When I was looking for one, the next step better one was over twice the price.
IMO it's a wobby POS made in china, How are you supposed to assemble the keepers if you can't let go of it?
Buy one with a fixed frame, NOT a wobby adjustable one.
