I went ahead and bought the CB valve spring tool. I know I'm going to do this again so I figured I should get the proper tools. I'll let y'all know how it works. It should work in-car and much easier than the other simpler kinds.

This is the tool that I had originally bought from O'Reillys. Not enough space for the #4 and #2 cylinders due to the body coming down to the bumper bracket. It worked pretty well on the front two. $20 Universal OHV Tool

The one which I bought and have yet to use is from CB and looks to be the ticket for easy work on all of them. Mounts to the rocker studs, $80 CB Valve Spring Removal Tool

Got the tire fixed last night and this morning I think I stripped a drum...
