Anyone have any idea what valve spring compressor kit I need to change the valve springs? Will the CTA2112 work (linked below)?

I’ve used something similar to this on my n14 cylinder with the head off the engine. This may work if you have the head on a bench

I have that tool and it sucks! I found a tool that works 100 times better.
