if you get yourself a narrow tipped magnet it'll make the whole lock removal/installation MUCH easier.

I got a screw type compressor from Kragen and made a taller stand-off for it from some 1x1 steel box stock.

I got mine from Snap On.. it was alright. We also tried a rented one from Autozone.. that one sucked though

The heads are really packed tight. Even with my modded tool there were 2-3 valves on each head that were a super bitch to get the springs off of.
